Ms. Nguyen Thi Suong, the school principal, said that from 3 a.m. on October 31, teachers came to the school to clean up, taking advantage of the time when the mud had not yet formed to push it all out. By morning, the basic classrooms had been cleaned, and everyone continued to chase the mud out of the yard. Mud stuck to the wall, had to be washed away with water to remove the mud and reduce the fishy smell. According to Ms. Suong, the flood has never been as severe as this year.
In addition to teachers, the school also received enthusiastic support from soldiers in cleaning up. This is one of the most heavily flooded schools in Hoa Xuan ward.
The half-flooded rooms have been cleaned, tables and chairs dried, ready to welcome students.
Nguyen Hong Anh Secondary School was cleaned after 3 days of flooding. We just hope that the next few days will be sunny and dry, and the tables, chairs, walls, and floors will not be moldy.
Hoa Chau Kindergarten (Hoa Xuan Ward, Da Nang) is located on high ground but the flood did not spare it. Since October 28, water began to rise in the school yard and then attacked the classrooms, kitchen... The whole school has been working hard to clean up since the water receded so that the school can be dry and clean soon. Ms. Tran Thi The, the school principal, said that when she heard the forecast of flooding, the school proactively moved tables, chairs, learning materials, and equipment to higher places. Therefore, there was less damage.
Because of the nature of kindergarten, the teachers clean very carefully from the rooms to the tables, chairs, school supplies, toys, school yard, kitchen area... to ensure a dry and hygienic environment that does not affect the children's health.
"Everyone cleaned up early, stayed for lunch at school, and continued cleaning in the afternoon. From tomorrow, the school will be ready to welcome the children back," said Ms. Tran Thi The, Principal of Hoa Chau Kindergarten.
