Green Library space for outdoor reading for students
Ms. Dinh Thi Hoa - Principal of My Thuan 2 Primary School said: "Reading is a part of the curriculum implemented by the school with a duration of 1 period/class/week. Spreading the reading culture among students not only helps them access knowledge through books but also trains their expressive reading skills, practice writing, and serve their learning."
Students enjoy and read attentively every time there are new books.
In addition to the green library, the school also has an indoor library with over 1,600 books of various genres such as: reference books, textbooks, law, education, stories, children's pictures... Phung Thuy An - a student of class 3B said: "I really like reading sessions at the school library. I get to read many books and look at pictures with my friends. We are always conscious of preserving new books to share with new students."
Not only schools, many localities have focused on building community bookcases to serve the people's reading and knowledge access needs. Building community bookcases is one of the tasks of Project 6 "Preserving and promoting the fine traditional cultural values of ethnic minorities associated with tourism development" under the National Target Program on socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas for the period 2021 - 2030.
