Teacher and pupils at Hoa Xuan Nursery School Site
Tran Thi Lan, head of Keng Du Nursery School, said, "If it rains, we can't use motorbike and have to walk because this is the only path to the school. A teacher was almost swept away while crossing a stream during the rain. Many teachers fell from their motorbikes on this road."
Hoa Xuan Village has 48 households with 200 people, all of them are from the Kho Mu ethnic group. They work on the rice fields and fish on Nam River. Children are from poor families so they want to work with their parents in the fields than going to school.
Luong Van Dooc, head of Hoa Xuan Village, said, "Hoa Xuan Village has low literacy level. Because of bad weather, cattle and children often fall ill. Our only wish is to build a proper school for the children."
Statistics from Keng Du People's Committee show that there are 55 nursery and primary pupils in Hoa Xuan. Teachers have to visit their houses to persuade them to go to school. Previously, the district authorities contributed VND15m to build a small classroom for the children but it has deteriorated badly. Only one teacher, Xeo Thi Tam, is responsible for 23 nursery children. Tam said she put a bed in the kitchen and faced communicating difficulties because only few children know Vietnamese.
