A new term started at all schools in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Schoolchildren from the flooded areas of North Phyongan, Jagang and Ryanggang provinces, where the rehabilitation project is under way, are taking lessons of new term in the capital city of Pyongyang.

As was already known, more than 13,000 people from the afflicted areas including children, schoolchildren, the elderly, the sick, honoured disabled ex-soldiers and nursing mothers are staying in Pyongyang from mid-August thanks to the special measures taken by the Workers' Party of Korea and the government of the DPRK.

In operation is an emergency system for nursing and education of children and schoolchildren in a safe and convenient environment at the state expense.

The number of schoolchildren amounts to over 4,000.

Classrooms and labs for them had been prepared and teachers from primary and middle schools in the city of Pyongyang were involved in the mobile educational group.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un came out to the spot, learned about the preparations of education for the schoolchildren from the flooded areas and watched a demonstration lesson for a class of primary school pupils on August 16.

Teacher Ri Jin Ju says:

"I was giving a demonstration lesson to a class of primary school pupils from the flooded areas, when the respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un called at our classroom.

Watching the pupils engrossed in class with a broad smile on his face, he said we had taken very important steps during the rehabilitation project. And he earnestly called for paying special attention and sincerity to the pupils so that they can attend to their studies with diligence as all of them are children the people in the flood-hit areas left in the care of the Party and the government, placing their wholehearted trust in them."

That day, the schoolchildren were provided with different kinds of gifts including school uniforms, things, bags and shoes thanks to the measures taken by Kim Jong Un.

When the preparations for new-term teaching for the schoolchildren from the flooded areas were under way, they toured different places of the capital city, spending pleasant days of summer vacation.

They enjoyed themselves at the Munsu Water Park, the Central Zoo, the Natural History Museum, the Mangyongdae Schoolchildren's Palace, the Sci-Tech Complex and the Mangyongdae Funfair. Everywhere they went, they kept the beautiful dreams of future deep in their hearts and resolved to add glory to the country and make it more prosperous.

The days of their stay in Pyongyang will be kept as their unforgettable and pleasant memories forever. With the memories they will study harder and train themselves, giving pleasure to their families and country.

The bell of learning is reverberating on this land as the nursing, upbringing and education of the children and schoolchildren are the most important of the state affairs that cannot be conceded even though the heavens fall.
