The school was a gift from a charity organization in Hanoi to the children of Cha Lo. But to have land to build the school, Mr. Que had to donate the entire area of ​​his house for construction. In addition to land and trees, he had to move his house to a new location on a hill about 300m away.

Mr. Que said that his family is poor, has many children, he himself did not have much education, and his children did not have a proper education, so he really hopes that his grandchildren and the children in the village will have a nice school to learn.

Currently, his four children are married. And there is a child in the house who is in preschool.

Mr. Que said that his house was located next to the school in the village. Before the new school was built, the local government came to his house to persuade him, and his family happily accepted. After that, the whole village came to help him move his house to the new location.

Regarding Mr. Que's land donation to build a new school, Mr. Luong Van Hoa - Secretary of the Mai Son Commune Party Committee said: When the government came to persuade him, he agreed because he himself also wanted to do something useful for the community. This is very practical.

The new school for children in Cha Lo village consists of 5 prefabricated classrooms, with modern furniture such as electric fans and lighting systems, serving the students in this border village well./.
