Continue boarding, parents can rest assured

On the morning of September 5, nearly 809,000 students in Lam Dong province attended the Opening Ceremony, officially entering the new school year 2025 - 2026. Previously, there was a lot of information that this school year, many schools in Phan Thiet stopped organizing boarding schools, causing confusion for parents. Immediately after that, Director of the Department of Education and Training (GD-DT) Le Thi Bich Lien had a meeting with principals of kindergartens and primary schools that organize boarding schools in the 2025 - 2026 school year in the Phan Thiet area.

The meeting aimed to resolve difficulties and obstacles related to the organization of boarding school meals. Accordingly, for the first two weeks of the school year, schools will temporarily purchase food from existing suppliers to ensure boarding school meals for students.

During that time, the Provincial Department of Education and Training will provide detailed guidance and training on the bidding process according to regulations. The Department has also sent a document to the People's Committees of communes, wards, and special zones encouraging the organization of boarding services at primary schools for the 2025-2026 school year. Therefore, there is no document or request to stop boarding services in the new school year.

In reality, boarding school offers many benefits such as: balancing family life and studies, fostering independence in students, reducing the burden of transporting children to and from school for parents, and developing social and academic skills through a structured environment. Students receive proper meals and rest at school, thereby improving their health and having more time to participate in extracurricular activities.

In particular, the boarding school program helps parents in caring for and managing their children after regular school hours. It fulfills the role of caring for students' health, psychology, and holistic development, creating a comprehensive education within the school. Students spend time at school in a self-contained environment, from eating and sleeping to resting and playing, contributing to strengthening teamwork, friendship, and the bond between teachers and students.

Elementary school students are a special target group for nutritionists. This is the age when their bodies and minds begin to transition to a crucial new phase in their physical and mental development. Physically, this is the stage where the brain is fully developed, children are capable of learning a great deal, and therefore their energy needs for learning increase.

In recent years, recognizing the importance of school meals, schools have made significant investments in facilities and personnel to serve students' daily meals. Experienced cooks regularly change the menu and dishes according to the seasons to ensure students enjoy delicious meals and food safety and hygiene.

The staff in the catering team are knowledgeable and dedicated, which is a very favorable condition for the school's boarding program. There are clear regulations governing the boarding program, and the boarding staff carefully cares for each student from meals to sleep, ensuring they eat nutritious food and get a good night's sleep to maintain good health for the second day of school, thus maintaining credibility with parents.

As a result, parents feel more at ease knowing their children are eating lunch at school. They don't have to worry about preparing meals or supervising their children during lunchtime, allowing them to focus on their work.

Many parents are delighted to hear that schools will continue to offer boarding services for students. This not only reassures parents but also increases interaction, connection, and cooperation between parents and teachers, leading to higher quality education and learning for their children…
