(HBO) – A creative playground model was inaugurated at Nguyen Tat Thanh School in Hoa Binh city on January 4. The inauguration ceremony saw the participation of representatives from the provincial Department of Education and Training, the Hanoi University of Science and Technology, and the ACES Vietnam project.
Delegates cut the ribbon to inaugurate the "Green Playground" project
at Nguyen Tat Thanh School in Hoa Binh
city.
The "Green Playground" is an educational playground model that
combines playfulness and streamlined education, which is different from normal
physical playgrounds. It consists of four sections: physical playground, recycling garden, herbal
garden, and Muong cultural space. Facilities in the physical playground are made from recycled materials.
Meanwhile, pupils can use plastic bottles to grow flowers in the recycling
garden.
The playground is part of the project "Community-centred educational model for
developing social resilience: playfulness towards an inclusive, safe and
resilient society”, which is implemented by the Hanoi University of Science and
Technology and funded by the Global Challenges Research
Fund (GCRF) with the participation of many universities
worldwide.
The playground was completed with the support of ACES Vietnam project, Yves
Perrin - a French teacher, and lecturers of the Hoa Binh
College of Education, and idea contribution of pupils. The model can be replicated in other schools in the locality, including those
in particularly disadvantaged areas./.
A workshop on promoting the role of reputable individuals and religious dignitaries in popularising and promoting gender equality in ethnic minorities and mountainous areas was held by the Vietnam Women's Union (VWU) in Hoa Binh province on July 16.
Hoa Binh province has 145 out of the 151 communes, wards, and towns which are ethnic minority-inhabited and mountainous areas, 506 communes facing extreme difficulties, and more than 74% of its population being ethnic minority people.
Creating on-site jobs for rural women lies in the heart of the operation of the Women's Union of Lac Thinh commune in Yen Thuy district. Bui Thi Tien, 44, of the Muong ethnic group, a member of the women's union of Sau hamlet in Lac Thinh commune, has boldly sought and created jobs for many women to increase their income and improve their families' living standards.
Defining socio-economic development and effective implementation of policies on ethnic affairs in the locality has been a continuous and crucial task during 2019-2024 period, the Party Committee and People's Committee of Cao Phong district have focused on leadership in executing these tasks, achieving positive results. The material and spiritual lives of people in ethnic minority-inhabited and mountainous areas have gradually improved while rural area has gained a face-lift.
Hoa Binh’s education and training sector is implementing concerted measures to better the quality of education and training, proactively implementing the national target programme on new rural area building.
Family is the home of each person and the cell of a society. It also plays a significant role in the formation and development of each person’s personality. On May 4, 2001, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 72/2001/QD-TTg, designating June 28 as the Vietnamese Family Day. Over the past years, Hoa Binh province has carried out a number of activities to honour the family traditions and help develop prosperous, progressive, equal, happy "cells of society”.
