A six-storey primary school in HCM City has been forced to hold its flag-raising ceremony on the top floor due to limited space.
Huynh Man Dat Primary School in District 5 has been in the same building for 30 years. Huynh Thi Buc, the headmaster, said that, due to the lack of space, students must attend the flag-raising ceremony in rotating groups.
Other activities, such as the school-year review meeting and physical training, are also organised on the top floor.
