Inauguration of the Viet Uc 2 Bridge – A Bridge of Love from Ba Thang Hai Campus
On the morning of June 10, teachers and student representatives from the Secondary School Division of the Vietnam Australia International School – Ba Thang Hai Campus – joined local authorities and residents at Thanh Nguyen Hamlet, Thanh Hung Commune, Giong Rieng District, Kien Giang Province to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Viet Uc 2 Bridge.
After more than two months of planning and construction, the Viet Uc 2 Bridge has been successfully completed – replacing an old, rusty steel bridge that once caused much worry during the stormy season. From now on, daily commutes to school, to the market, and around the area for the people of Thanh Hung and nearby communities will be safer and more secure than ever before.
Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Vo Van Phi – Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Thanh Hung Commune – expressed heartfelt thanks on behalf of the community to the teachers and students of Ba Thang Hai Campus for their meaningful contribution. The People’s Committee of Giong Rieng District also awarded a Certificate of Merit to the school in recognition of this practical support.
The total funding provided by Ba Thang Hai Campus for the project reached VND 124 million, including VND 118 million for construction and an additional VND 6 million for installing two solar-powered lights at both ends of the bridge – ensuring safe travel for residents even at night.
Small gifts were handed to local residents and students, adding warmth and joy to the ceremony. Every smile, every gleam in the eye reflected a shared happiness – the joy of giving and the gratitude of receiving.
The Viet Uc 2 Bridge is not just a means of transportation – it stands as a symbol of humanity, of responsibility, and of the open hearts of the Ba Thang Hai community. Every bridge span, every brick is a testament to the journey of connection, companionship, and compassion.
And this journey is far from over – with hopes for Viet Uc 3, Viet Uc 4… to rise in the near future, carrying love even further to places where dreams are still waiting for a small miracle to come true.
