spring school is an informal school

spring school is an informal school. It provides classes to disadvantaged children in Ho Chi Minh city. Around 30 street children live and study at the school and about 250 children with special difficulties fromm district 1 regularly attend classes.
The Organisation for educational development co-operated with Spring School to set up English classes in 1998. Dane, theatre, singing and folk music classes were set up a year later. Children from these classes participate in fundraising performances. They raise money to continue their English and Performance Arts classes.
Spring School requires volunteers to help organise their fundraising dinner held annually in June. This is an exciting night in which children dance, sing and play music at one of the largest hotels in HCM City. They also need foreign volunteers to contact sponsors and help to expand the school activities. Volunteers are required from February until July to help organise these events.
It is hoped that more schools like Spring School will soon be found in other cities in Vietnam.
