424 students immersed themselves in a vibrant “Reading Festival” at Nghia Loi Primary School, Nghe An

The event was attended by Ms. Nguyen Thi Thanh Lien - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Nghia Tho Commune Party Committee; Mr. Le Ngoc Uyen - Vice Chairman of the Nghia Tho Commune People’s Committee; Ms. Tran Hong Diep - Director of VSF; Ms. Luu Thi Thu Hien - Deputy CEO of TH Milk Food Jsc. - THMF (under TH Group); volunteers from THMF; and all 446 staff members, teachers, and students of Nghia Loi Primary School.

Familiar corners of the schoolyard were “transformed,” filled with seven interactive educational booths and three lively traditional game stations, where students could learn, play, and explore knowledge in their own way. Moving from one booth to another, they took on challenges, exchanged ideas with friends and teachers, and engaged with familiar topics such as nutrition, personal hygiene, gender equality, and reading habits

These activities were prepared and directly facilitated by 12 teachers from Nghia Loi Primary School and 12 volunteers from THMF.

Beyond simply receiving knowledge, students also directly “retold” what they understood through the “Young Communicators” contest. From familiar topics such as environmental protection, traffic safety, to the prevention of school violence, each entry became a way for them to read, comprehend, and share ideas in their own creative language. This was not only a creative playground but also an opportunity for students to express their thoughts and emotions while spreading positive messages.

13 outstanding individuals and class groups were honored at the ceremony.

Through activities like these, reading is no longer seen as a dull task but as an engaging experience full of joy and curiosity. When students are encouraged to take part, explore, and express themselves, they become genuinely interested in books - building a strong foundation for lifelong reading habits.

On this occasion, VSF donated 2,403 books to seven schools in Nghia Tho commune, helping to expand reading spaces and nurture students’ love for books. TH Group also presented 1,728 glasses of TH true JUICE milk MISTORI to all students at Nghia Loi Primary School.

The event also marked the closing of the “Happy school” project for the 2025 – 2026 academic year. With a total budget of over VND 850 million, the project implemented a wide range of activities, including upgrading school facilities, building an outdoor library, supporting disadvantaged students, donating books, and organizing training and communication sessions for teachers, parents, and students on topics such as community health, gender equality, and positive discipline. By the end of the school year, more than 3,400 people had directly benefited from the project’s activities.

 Sharing her thoughts on the project’s outcomes, Ms. Tran Quynh Nhan, Principal of Nghia Loi Primary School, said:

“The support and partnership of For Vietnamese Stature Foundation and sponsoring organizations have not only helped improve our facilities but also provided great motivation for both teachers and students to continue striving in the mission of education. We are committed to building Nghia Loi Primary School into a truly ‘Happy school,’ where every school day is a joyful one - where students feel loved, safe, and respected.”
