A teacher saw this scene and ran down the hill from school. He picked up the young children, waded through the rushing water and rushed back and forth, sending more than 60 children to the other side safely one by one.
Duan Rui took his students across the rising floodplain, and his shoes became "mud shoes".
With strong arms, he propped up the "ferryman" in the storm for the children. The students filmed this process with their mobile phones, and the video was circulated on the Internet recently. Many netizens praised him as "the most handsome primary school teacher".
After the photos and videos of Duan Rui carrying students across the river were posted online, they were praised by parents and a large number of netizens. The reputation of "the most handsome primary school teacher" soon spread.
However, Duan Rui has repeatedly said that this is only a very common thing, and an educator has done his duty.
"It is a teacher's duty to protect students." Duan Rui said, in fact, I didn't think too much at that time, just worried that some children would plunge into the water because of impatience, fearing danger. "What moved me was that when I carried them across the river, they all gave me umbrellas. The children who passed first waited for me and others on the shore, and finally everyone went to school together."
Duan Rui still has some regrets. He said that as the principal, the school actually made a rainstorm emergency plan, but the conditions were limited and the response was insufficient, which led to obstacles and dangers for students on their way to school.
Muduo Primary School, located in Muduo Village Committee of Awang Town, Dongchuan District, is the hardest rural mountainous primary school in Awang Town. This remote and humble primary school has six classrooms with a total area of 274 square meters, six dormitories with a total area of 80 square meters, and a canteen that can only be used as a kitchen. There are 65,438+037 children in 22 villagers' groups around.
"There is a lack of education in mountainous areas, especially the concept of education can't keep up." Duan Rui said that when some students first entered school, Lian Bi could not learn Mandarin, which made him feel a great responsibility. Carrying a child across the river to school is not only to ensure safety, but also to prevent a child from falling behind in class and delaying his studies.
