(Baonghean.vn) - To pursue their dream of going to school, hundreds of students in Tay Son commune (Ky Son) are living in temporary huts built by their parents. Many children have to leave home to become independent as soon as they enter first grade. In these shabby thatched roofs, their dream of learning is even more difficult.
 |
| At Tay Son Ethnic Minority Secondary School, there are currently more than 100 students from three remote villages, Lu Thanh, Dong Tren and Dong Duoi, who have set up huts to study. |
 |
| Here, they have to live an independent life early. Although young, Mong students are very conscious about keeping their living space clean. |
 |
| Mua Ba Cho (Dong Duoi village), a 7th grade student, goes to get water to cook rice after school. |
 |
| The current boarding house is using a very unstable mini electricity and water supply so the students often study during the day. |
 |
| In addition to the meals organized by the school, the children also cook with food brought from home. |
 |
| The children get water from the stream for cooking and daily activities. |
 |
| Usually breakfast is only instant noodles so students have to cook rice to "fill their stomachs" for school. |
 |
| Every child is proficient in firewood and cooking. |
 |
| Breakfast was simple but full of joy |
 |
| Every day, the children are supported with 3 meals a day organized by the school. However, according to Mr. Hap Van Long - Principal of Tay Son Secondary School - Ethnic Minority School: "Students in the villagesLu Thanh, Dong Tren and Dong Duoi have enjoyed the boarding regime but the school has not been recognized as a boarding school because the number of boarding students accounts for less than 50%. That is a disadvantage for the school." |
 |
| Most of the students here do not have a permanent boarding house, so after school hours they have to live in a makeshift hut. |
 |
| The place considered the most "formal" in the boarding house. |
