On the morning of September 5, the opening atmosphere of the new school year filled all schools in Hai Phong City. Students eagerly head to school in a new, fancy uniform, holding flowers in their sleeves, and eyes looking eagerly into class. Many parents who are workers in the city take advantage of taking their children to school before returning to work.
At Luong Dien Primary School (Cam Giang Commune, Hai Phong City), many workers arrived very early to take their children to attend the opening ceremony. Ms. Le Thi Hoa - a worker at Bocheng Vietnam Precision Technology Co., Ltd. - has a daughter in grade 2 at Luong Dien Primary School this year.
Sitting next to her daughter before the opening ceremony, she reminded her to adjust her uniforms and arrange them neatly, both to seduce and encourage her. Although this was the second time she took her child to the opening ceremony of the new school year, her emotions were still the same as the first time she took her child to the opening ceremony of grade 1.
"Although I am busy with work, being able to sit with my child right now, watching him laugh and ask him about the new classroom, I feel that all the hardship has disappeared. The small moment was very meaningful to me, like a simple happiness that I want to remember forever" - Ms. Hoa shared.
Not only Ms. Hoa, many worker fathers are also eager to take their children to school. Mr. Nguyen Van Pho - a worker at VSIP Industrial Park (Cam Giang Commune, Hai Phong City) - took his first-grade daughter to class in a new uniform, carrying a pair of pre-prepared books.
Mr. Pho shared: "The family woke up very early, and our daughter was also eagerly preparing to go to the opening ceremony. Before the summer, I spent time shopping for all my children's school supplies. Today, take the opportunity to take beautiful photos for your children to save memories. Seeing you happy and excited, I also feel happy."
The image of parents sitting on stone benches or standing at the school gate watching their children in the first minutes of school, talking and encouraging has made the opening atmosphere more lively and intimate. Although busy with work, they still spend time caring for their children in every small detail.
Those simple moments are not only the joy of workers' families but also spread warm affection in the community, making the opening day of the new school year more meaningful. For students, this is an exciting start; for parents, it is a source of pride and happiness to accompany their children on the first steps of their learning journey.
