Truong Sa Special Zone - the sacred sea and island area of ​​the Fatherland, has special geographical conditions with a long distance from the mainland and complex weather changes. Organizing education here requires close coordination between the military, local authorities and the education sector. Schools on the island are invested in facilities and equipment suitable to actual conditions. Therefore, the opening ceremony here has a special meaning: affirming the attention of the Party, State and army to the cause of education, adding motivation for teachers and students to overcome difficulties and strive.
