Excited with the super factory
The boys and girls were surprised when they set foot in the cool green resort in the middle of the scorching land of Tay Ninh and were even more excited when they learned that this beautiful, vast resort was not for tourists but for Vinamilk's cows.
Little Duong Thi Ngoc Mai, a student at Dai Dien Primary School, Thanh Phu District, Ben Tre Province, excitedly said: “We got to take an electric car around the resort. The cows on this farm live in a very clean and beautiful place. The farm is covered in a vast green color surrounded by grasslands, corn, and has fresh, cool air with surrounding lakes.”
Tay Ninh is a province with a hot and dry climate, the dry season lasts for many months of the year. Therefore, the visitors were very curious: "How do the cows here not get hot?" Having heard the uncles and aunts introduce the farm before, the children immediately had a satisfactory answer: "To overcome this reality and ensure the standards of dairy farming according to Global GAP, Vinamilk has designed a system of lakes to regulate water and air combined with a modern automatic cooling system in the barn area, ensuring that the cows are always comfortable, eat well, sleep well, take a cool bath... to ensure the quality of milk".

Parents and young visitors of the school milk program experience the beautiful, vast resort of Vinamilk cows. |
The fresh milk that each student drinks in the school milk program comes from cows that are meticulously raised like that. What about the production, packaging and preservation process to ensure that each drop of fresh milk reaches the children with guaranteed quality?
This question was answered when the group continued to visit Vinamilk's super factory in Binh Duong. The first impression for each member was the process of receiving raw fresh milk. Thanks to the extensive system of farms and factories, raw fresh milk is always transported by Vinamilk to the factory as quickly as possible on modern tankers that keep the milk cold from 2 - 6 degrees Celsius, so the milk retains its full fresh flavor and nutritional content.
Children also gained knowledge when witnessing with their own eyes the 20-hectare super factory, which only has a few workers operating it because most of the heavy work has been done by robots.
Mr. Ly Tuan Dung - Factory Director provided information to the children: "With the current design capacity, the factory can produce more than 10 million milk products of all kinds every day. This is one of the few super factories in the world with the most advanced automatic technology that Tetra Pak Group has ever deployed. Thanks to the combination of factors: advanced processing technology, UHT sterilization technology and aseptic filling technology, the product can retain its fresh taste, without any preservatives".

Belief in school milk
After the tour, the impression and excitement of seeing with our own eyes the production process of the school milk boxes that the children drink every day remained through each story told by the children.Chip (nickname) daughter of actor Manh Truong was able to join this trip with her parents and younger brother Bo for 2 days. When she returned to Hanoi, the echoes still lingered with a lot of joy. Originally an independent girl, Chip is now more proactive in drinking milk and reminding her younger brother to drink milk every day because she has felt completely assured in the quality of each carton of Vinamilk milk.
The tour received many positive feedbacks from parents and children:
From the beginning of this school year, I started drinking school milk. This excursion was the first time I knew how the milk I drink every day comes from clean, beautiful cows... and is produced in a "super" factory. After the excursion, I told my classmates and advised them to drink milk like me because not only is this milk made very hygienically, but it also helps us grow taller and smarter - said Duong Thi Ngoc Mai, Dai Dien Primary School, Thanh Phu District, Ben Tre Province:
In my class, everyone drinks school milk every day. If you let me drink milk freely, I can drink it at any time, but I have to drink the amount of milk that my parents allow. During the tour, what I liked most was the technology at the milk factory. There were very few workers, but all the lines still worked quickly. The boxes of school milk made for students were really a feat! - Ngo Nguyen Hoang Huy, Primary School in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa.
When I heard information like whether school milk is fresh milk, whether the nutrients and hygiene are guaranteed… I also wondered. But “a hundred hearings are not as good as one seeing”, now no matter what anyone says, I am not worried anymore. On the contrary, I just hope that my children can drink more school milk instead of just 3 boxes/week like now in Ben Tre – Ms. Le Thi Hue, parent of Tan Thanh Primary School, Ben Tre.

An enjoyable experience
The surprise for the students and teachers after the trip was not only a better understanding of the "journey" of each milk carton; it was also the practical experiences that gave them knowledge and interesting lessons beyond the textbooks.Nguyen Ho Kim Tuyen, a third grade student at Thanh Phu Primary School, Ben Tre, excitedly shared: I will definitely write an essay describing dairy cows, from when they were calves until they became beautiful cows, how they were raised and cared for every day, and how many liters of fresh milk they yielded each day... "That essay will not be like any other sample essay and my teacher will surely be pleased to give me 9, 10 points with compliments", that thought made little Kim Tuyen smile brightly.
As for Le Tran Thanh Tam, he said he wanted to write an essay describing the scene at the super milk factory, how diligent the robots are, but also the indispensable role of the "superheroes" of the engineers in the factory. "In the last part of the essay, in the part expressing my feelings, I will say that when I grow up, I want to become a really good engineer at the Vietnam milk factory Vinamilk, an engineer that no machine can replace...", Thanh Tam happily shared.
Visiting the factory, experiencing a day at the farm, breathing fresh air, being close to nature, witnessing the uncles and aunts working diligently to have delicious boxes of fresh milk, an essential source of nutritious milk for everyone, many boys and girls felt moved, wanting to grow up quickly to join hands in those meaningful, practical jobs. Ngo Nguyen Hoang Huy, Primary School in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa confided that there are many children across the country, like him, who love to drink milk but do not have the conditions to drink milk every day. He will become an engineer, operating machines and robots in the milk factory or on the farm to produce a lot of milk for children, so that everyone can drink milk. To make that dream come true, Huy and his friends told themselves that they will have to study hard and be good...
