The competition to build green, safe and effective kindergartens, and safe, creative and effective school and classroom spaces at the elementary level in the 2023 - 2024 academic year achieved outstanding results, thereby contributing to creating a truly meaningful educational environment.
Phu Vinh
Kindergarten (Tan Lac) builds a green, safe and effective educational
environment.
Nguyen Thi Hong Diem, head of the Division
of Preschool and Primary Education under the provincial Department of Education
and Training, shared that the schools have basically met the competition
criteria in a direction of putting students at the centre. Most schools arrange
classroom spaces appropriately, take advantage of spaces for children to
operate appropriately, and create favourable conditions for students to practice
and experience.
The competition attracted the participation
of 20 preschools, primary and secondary schools in the province. Teachers have
worked hard to build a lively school space which has created excitement for
children in learning and playing. They are a beautiful small reading room
uniquely designed with books and coffee for teachers to relax at Hoa Binh
Kindergarten; a green space like a resort at Doc Lap Primary and Secondary
School for Ethnic Minorities in Hoa Binh city; a rustic space like a homestay
at Bao La Primary and Secondary School in Mai Chau district or modern like a
mini resort at Hoa Phuong Kindergarten in Kim Boi district.
Through inspections at schools, the
Department of Education and Training acknowledged a fundamental change.
According to the department, building an
educational environment requires time and money, especially the enthusiasm of
schools’ leaders and teachers, and the care, sharing, and understanding of
students’ parents. Those efforts are recognised by the achievements of the
participating schools through this competition. It has mobilised the
participation of parents in improving the educational environment, thus helping
children enjoy the best learning environment. This model will be duplicated to
other schools in the coming time.
More than just an information technology teacher, Bui Van Nien is an inspiring figure who has nurtured the scientific curiosity and creative spirit of students in Vietnam’s ethnic minority communities.
