From early morning, ferries from hamlets far from the school were able to take students to school for the opening ceremony. This year's ceremony was broadcast live on VTV1 and connected online from the National Convention Center ( Hanoi ) to educational institutions across the country. At Dat Mui Primary School 1, students were all cheerful, eager, and full of emotions.

The joyful and excited atmosphere of the new school year opening ceremony at Dat Mui Primary School 1, Dat Mui commune.

Dat Mui Primary School 1 is located just a few hundred meters from the coast of Ca Mau Cape, and currently has nearly 800 students. Because many areas do not have roads, many students still have to go to school by water. On the opening day, the students' faces were radiant with smiles when they met their teachers and friends again.

Mr. Nguyen Van Teo, Cai Xep hamlet, Dat Mui commune, had to wake up at 4:30 am to prepare to take his two children to school by boat, even though his house was only about 8 km away. Not only his children but also other students in this area had to go to school by boat. To provide for his children's education, Mr. Teo had to endure hardships for many years and carry with him the hope that his children would have a better future. Mr. Teo shared more: "My house is in Xeo Doi canal, I leave my house at 5:20 am, then pick up students from there to school. I mainly take my children to school and pick up 4 other students to earn fuel money, to help cover the cost of sending my children to school."

Comrade Ly Chi Kiet, Deputy Head of the Economic - Budget Committee of the People's Council of Ca Mau province, presented gifts to students of Dat Mui Primary School 1.

Mr. Doan Van Tiep, Principal of Dat Mui Primary School 1, said that currently, about 100 students of the school have to go to class by boat. The reason is due to the characteristics of the coastal area, people live scattered along the canals, mainly making a living from fishing and aquaculture. Many families live in areas without roads, so their children have to go to school by boat. Some children are picked up and dropped off by contract, others are taken directly by their families.

Comrade Kieu Minh Tieng, Party Secretary, Chairman of the People's Council of Dat Mui commune, presented bicycles to students in difficult circumstances.

Dat Mui Commune has 7 schools, with more than 3,300 students. Although the economic conditions of the commune are still difficult, the opening ceremonies at the schools are held solemnly and warmly.

At the ceremony, many units presented hundreds of scholarships, gifts, notebooks, bicycles and school supplies to poor students who overcame difficulties and studied well in Dat Mui commune, with a total value of nearly 100 million VND.
