Hundreds of overseas Vietnamese and their children in Prague, the Czech Republic have gathered at the Asian Trade Centre Sapa to celebrate the mid-autumn festival.
The event offered an opportunity for the OV children in the Czech Republic to learn more about the Vietnamese culture.
Nguyen Van Son, President of the Vietnamese Association in the Trade Centre emphasised that the organizers have prepared 600 gifts and 100 rewards for children, who have achieved outstanding academic results.
Nguyen Thi Dung, an overseas Vietnamese in the Czech Republic said after school, the children spend very little time on Vietnamese traditional festivals or games. The event was a good opportunity for them to meet one another, play folk games and nurture their love for homeland.
Nguyen Thi Ngoc Ha, who has resided in the Czech Republic for 10 years, said she wants her children to preserve their cultural roots, especially the Vietnamese language through mid-autumn festival and other Vietnamese songs.
