In the past 8 years, 19 schools in Hoa Vang District have participated in the green school building model, including Hoa Tien 2 Primary School.

Currently, the Hoa Tien 2 Primary School and 4 others of its kind are maintainning this model and implement more criteria with higher requirements, meeting new regulations of the Law on Environmental Protection in 2020, in order to have a basis for replication in the district in the coming time.

The model of building a green school is a collection of activities that meet the criteria in terms of green trees, clean water, and land environment, waste management, wastewater and sanitation, natural resource and energy saving; school yard facilities, classrooms, working rooms.

Particularly at the Hoa Tien 2 Primary School, over the past years, the school has mobilised more than VND 201 million to invest in a green school building model, of which over VND 27 million was from individuals and organisations in the community to upgrade works in service of environmental protection.
