Covering an area of over 8,100sq.m in Hiep Hoa district, the school comprises a
two-storey building, a welfare building, a multi-purpose building, a sport
ground, a garage, and gardens. It is built with a total budget of nearly 20
billion VND (863,400 USD).
The school is scheduled to be completed in early 2021, benefiting about 300
local students who are in difficult circumstances.
It will also serve as a venue for the "Child Development Programme (CDP)" with
extracurricular training activities such as fine arts, music, information
technology, and foreign languages, as well as exchange and health check-up
activities.
In his speech at the ceremony, Choi Joo-ho, General Director of Samsung
Electronics Vietnam, said the school is expected to bring learning opportunities
and nurture dreams of future student generations of Bac Giang.
The Samsung Hope School project in Bac Giang is implemented after the signing of
a memorandum of understanding between Samsung Electronics Vietnam, KFHI and the
provincial Department of External Affairs in July 2019. This is the third school
in the chain of Samsung Hope Schools in Vietnam, following those in Bac Ninh and
Thai Nguyen. In the time to come, a school of this kind will be built in Lang
Son province.
