The respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un sent benevolent gifts to the orphans, primary school pupils and children across the DPRK on the occasion of the auspicious April holiday.

Expressing thanks to the respected fatherly Marshal who takes care of and brings up them with love and affection, the students of Mangyongdae Revolutionary School, Chilgol Revolutionary School and other revolutionary schools made a firm determination to always go along the road of loyalty and patriotism by carrying forward the ideas and faith of the forerunners.

Those children at baby homes, orphanages, primary and middle schools for orphans, nurseries and kindergartens and pupils at the primary schools across the country were happy to receive various kinds of confectionery and other foodstuffs, school things and sportswear.
