Mr. Ta Duong Thang - Principal of Chau Thanh Town Secondary School shared: “The journey to historical sites is a regular activity of the school. Trips to the source not only help students gain more historical knowledge but also foster patriotism and a sense of responsibility for their homeland and country. Understanding history, students appreciate more the values of peace , independence and freedom that their ancestors sacrificed to gain. Coming to historical sites, sacred emotions and pride surge, especially in the days when the whole country is looking forward to the 50th anniversary of the complete liberation of the South and national reunification (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025). The source activities also contribute to strengthening the spirit of solidarity and cohesion between union members, team members and teachers”.
