(HBO) - Innitiated by the provicial chapter of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union, the Hoa Binh School of Young Socialist Workers, a model that integrated both learning and working activities, was established on April 1, 1958.
The school’s management
board and generations of students review its glorious history intertwined
with teachings of late President Ho Chi Minh.
On August 17, 1962, the late President visited the school. In 1991, the
facility changed its name intothe provincial Boarding
School for Ethnic Minority Students, considering the President’s teachings
during his visit – "study well, work well, exert efforts forever and improve forever” – as its motto for
operation.
Currently, the school runs
22 classes with 728 students, of which 13 are high-quality ones in terms of literature,
math, and English. It has 87 teachers who were trained in line with standards.
The school consists of 30 classrooms, two libraries with 22 computers,
and one multi-functional centre. Particularly, it has a traditional house to
educate students about the
school’s history and achievements.
As a centre for training students from local ethnic minority groups,
the school has so far gained encouraging results at different exams. For
example, it recorded 99.56 percent and 96.92 percent of students passing the national
high school graduation examination and university entrance exam last year. In the first semester of the
2019-2020 academic year, it saw 92.86 and 99.87 percent of students achieving
good and excelent levels in study and moral conduct, respectively.
The establishment also frequently creates healthy and useful extracurricular activities to
help its boarding students enhance their life skills and virtue. A highlight in
these activities is the "30 golden minutes” programme taking place every Monday
mornings./.
After three years of implementing the Politburo’s Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW on continuing performing Directive 05-CT/TW on enhancing the learning and studying of President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, moral example and lifestyle, Lac Thuy district of Hoa Binh province has discovered many effective models and practices, creating a spillover effect in the local community, helping to develop a clean and strong Party Organisation meeting the requirements in the new situation.
The Hoa Binh Elderly Association and the provincial Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs on May 7 held a working session with a visiting delegation from the Japanese Embassy and sponsors of a local project on reducing senior citizens’ income and health vulnerabilities in Vietnam (VIE071).
Seventy years have passed, but the memories of the Dien Bien Phu campaign in 1954 have never faded in the mind of veteran Ly Van Ngoan from Dong Tien hamlet, Phu Thanh commune, Lac Thuy district.
Over recent times, in Mai Chau district, there have been many typical examples of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh's ideology, ethics, and lifestyle in all aspects of the social life, contributing to successfully implementing the tasks of socio-economic development, and ensuring social welfare and defence and security in the locality.
