Maybe, there will be some unforgettable memories of teachers and pupils from kindergarten and primary schools of Nhap Ngoai villiage, Dong Ruong ( Da Bac) commune. Flood and heavy rain suddenly came to many village houses as well as the village school. "No one could imagine of a catastrophic and horrible disaster like that. We were born and grew up in this land but this is the first time we have known what a flood is, what a flash flood or pipe flood is. It swept away everything, even the children classrooms which were built solidly” said by Luong Van Hung, the Head of Nhap Ngoai village, Dong Ruong Commune confided.

Luong Thi Huyen, a teacher at Nhap Ngoai school, added "After the flood passed by, we could not believe in our eyes when seeing the scene of devastated school under the soil and rock. A teacher sat down on the ground and cried. The children felt very sad when looking at that, they thought that no classrooms meant that they could not go to school, could not study any more. They cried together.

Mr. Tran Tuan Vang, the principal of Dong Ruong Primary and Secondary School said: At Nhap Ngoai Village school, there are only 2 classrooms with 12 primary children and 1 kindergarten with 17 children. Due to the recent flood, the classrooms were covered under the soil and rock; they were collapsed completely and is no longer used. This has affected to teaching and learning activities. After the flood, with the support of all levels and branches, especially from the staff of the provincial Military Command, the temporary classrooms were built up.

After the flood passed, the provincial Armed Force immediately investigated and moved more than 20 households living in Nhap village to the safer shelters. At the same time, they built a canvas for residents to live temporarily while waiting for the authority’s permission of building a resettlement area. Dinh Thao Vy, a 5th -grade child at Nhap Village school shared: I was very upset seeing the school covered with soil. I was afraid that I could not go to school to see my friends and my teachers. When the soldiers set up the canvas for us to learn, we felt so happy. We only hope that our family will have a stable residence, we can have spacious classrooms and no longer learn in temporary ones.

A teacher, Tran Tuan Vang, said: Despite the difficult circumstance, we will create all favorable conditions for children in Nhap Ngoai school to fully attend the class and encourage them to try their best to study.

The flood has passed, the living condition is still hard and difficult, but the people have to make great efforts to improve their lives. However, it is worth noting that the people and children in Nhap Ngoai village have never given u learning even though their lives are so hard and difficult. Perhaps they think that their lives get much better thanks to their learning and their offspring being fully taught. "Our difficult life will be improved because of our learning”, the Head of Nhap Ngoai village, Luong Van Hung believed.
