Sharing at the workshop, Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Kim Son said: "I am very interested and appreciate the initiative of the organizers to organize this workshop, with the theme "Happiness in education". This way of posing the issue is broader, more comprehensive and deeper than the way of posing the issue of developing happy schools, even though happy schools are an important part of happiness in education".
The Minister also assessed that the conference's theme is even more meaningful when Vietnam's education system is undergoing strong changes, focusing on realizing the goal of comprehensive human development, helping people to live happily, creating happiness for themselves and for those involved.
"A community of happy people can only be created by a happy education. This is also the major orientation that the Ministry of Education and Training is directing to implement throughout the industry with different levels and methods at different levels and subjects," said the Minister.
Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Kim Son commented: "Ms. Thai Huong is a person who always cares about building happy schools."
The Minister also expressed his appreciation for the contributions of Labor Hero Thai Huong (Founder of EDI and TH School system) in building a happy environment in education.
"For TH School, the founder is Ms. Thai Huong, a person who is always interested in building a happy school. In fact, we see that Ms. Thai Huong has done a lot for this content. To do that, first of all, she must be a happy person and the path she pursues must be the path that creates added value for happiness" - Minister Nguyen Kim Son expressed.

With pride and emotion, Ms. Thai Huong shared that with all her passion and dedication, she has built TH School into a "Happy School - a place where joy blooms and love spreads".
After 8 years of establishment, TH School has made steady progress in training, recorded many outstanding achievements - and most importantly, it is a place where children can study, play, make friends and develop a free and complete environment, express their desires and dreams; so that TH School is worthy of preserving full childhood memories for each student when they grow up to be proud of this school.
In addition, Ms. Thai Huong also emphasized: "In the context of deep international integration, Vietnamese education is witnessing strong changes but still steadfastly adheres to the only goal: All for beloved students. However, the career of "growing people" cannot be successful in a day or two but requires the understanding and participation of society in general and the education sector in particular - realizing the determination to nurture future golden generations, contributing to the sustainable development of an entire country and a nation".
