Nearly two thirds of children in Home of Affection (Yiet Kieu St) achieved good study results this term.

After more than a year of funding for the children in the Home of Affection we are happy to announce nearly 2 / 3 of the children achieved excellent and fair results in the first term of the school year 2008 - 2009. These results are thanks to the house mothers, the management board in the orphanage and especially the enthusiastic efforts of the teachers who tutor for the children, such as teacher Cúc for the primary children, and the mathematics teacher Lanh for the children in secondary school.

At the beginning school year 2008-2009, the studying situation of children was very alarming as nearly half of the children had bad results in the first test. Confronted with the above situation, Hue Help collaborated with the housemothers and the orphanage management board, and thanks to a grant from Education Services (Cambridge, UK) we were able to hire a primary level teacher to work at the orphanage, and provide external tuition for the secondary and high school pupils.

As the main sponsor organisation for the orphanage, we will work closely with the teachers to encourage the children to strive to achieve good results at the end of school year 2008-2009. We would like to thank everyone who has supported us in helping to improve the education of the children at the Home of Affection!
