| A children’s performance recounting the life of President Ho Chi Minh, his revolutionary career and love for children |
The contest featured 14 performances recounting President Ho Chi Minh’s life, his revolutionary career, and love for children, as well as children’s admiration and affection for him. Through storytelling, participants had the opportunity to demonstrate their communication skills, confidence, and creativity while gaining a deeper understanding of the President’s life, ideology, morality, and style.
The event is part of efforts to implement the city’s program on ‘Promoting Lifelong Learning Activities in Libraries, Museums, and Cultural Centers through 2030’. It also marks the upcoming Vietnamese Teachers’ Day (November 20), Vietnam Cultural Heritage Day (November 23), and Vietnam Culture Day (November 24).
According to Ms. Dinh Thi Hoai Trai, Director of the Ho Chi Minh Museum and Monuments Management Board, through stories about President Ho Chi Minh, the contest aims to foster patriotism, gratitude, and national pride among children, inspiring them to study and put into practice the Five Teachings of Uncle Ho. It also encourages them to develop good qualities, including compassion, honesty, perseverance, simplicity, humility, and a sense of responsibility towards the community.
Notably, Hue is the place President Ho Chi Minh spent his childhood and teenage years, which left many profound imprints on his life. Bringing heritage associated with him closer to younger generations through experiential activities and learning opportunities at the museum will contribute to diversifying approaches to teaching history and culture while promoting the museum’s role in extracurricular education.
