The Hai Hung School Project
Recently, VVAF completed construction of ten new classrooms for the Hai Hung School in the Hai Hung Commune of the Nam Dinh Province. The school was established before 1954. Six classrooms were built in 1972. Five extra classrooms were built in 1992. However, the school was in poor conditions due to harsh typhoon weather in recent years. The ten new classrooms in 2010 will create a richer environment for teachers and children at school and will improve the quality of teaching and learning.
