In the mid-morning of May 23, dozens of teachers from Dien Phuc Primary School and parents brought ladders and baskets to harvest 10 ripe mango trees.

All around, hundreds of students eagerly watched and cheered. Some students also held basins and pots to hold mangoes to help their teachers. The image was shared by the teacher on social media, receiving praise from the community.

Mr. Ha Huy Trung, Principal of Dien Phuc Primary School, said that yesterday was the day when classes summarized the school year. This was also the time when the mango trees in the school yard, which are over 10 years old, were ripe. Therefore, the school decided to pick the fruit to give to the students.

After more than an hour, the teachers in the school picked about 1,000 mangoes, washed them, divided them into classes, and gave each child two mangoes.

"Although the material things are not big, this is a way for the children to learn more about protecting trees," said Mr. Trung, adding that before, the teacher had reminded the children not to climb and pick fruit on their own to avoid accidents.

This is the 5th year the school has harvested mangoes to give to students, but this year the quantity is larger than before because of the good harvest.

Ms. Pham Thi Lan, a parent of a child studying at Dien Phuc Primary School, said that she and many other parents were excited about the school's activities. Ms. Lan appreciated the small but meaningful and joyful event on the day students gathered for the end of the school year.

Dien Phuc Primary School currently has 15 classes with 478 students; 27 teachers and staff. The school has met national standards level 2 since 2019.

A few days ago, images of students saluting the flag, doing exercises, and playing in the shady and fruit-filled schoolyard also delighted the online community.
