North Korean delegation to visit Hanoi nursery school

The North Korean delegation will visit the Vietnam-North Korea Nursery School in Hanoi on March 1.

Vietnam-North Korea Nursery School

The school was opened on March 8, 1978, with help from North Korea and is a symbol for the friendship between the two countries. At first, there were only four classes with 120 children. Nowadays, the school has over 470 children with 17 classes.

Many children were dressed in the traditional hanbok for the day and sang a song in Korean to greet the guests. Children also coloured in pictures of President Ho Chi Minh and founding President Kim Il-Sung.
