VTV.vn - Although September 5th is the annual opening ceremony of the school year, students in Ta Hoc primary and secondary schools in Mai Sơn district of the northern province of Son La won't be able to start school just yet due to the recent floods.

Floods have blocked the road leading to the district. Tens of classrooms, tables, and chairs are broken and textbooks are submerged in mud. It's still raining, causing difficulties for teachers and soldiers to clean the schools and equipment. The local authorities prepared new textbooks, tables, and chairs, but couldn't transport them to the schools as the roads are still blocked. The school year in the district is scheduled to take place later compared to other localities.
