“The competition witnessed the participation of 100 students from diverse schools in Hanoi. It provided a unique opportunity for these young artists to express their love for their homeland and the countries of Vietnam and Russia. Additionally, it highlighted Hanoi’s rich heritage as a city of peace, creativity, and heroism,” Nam elaborated at the contest briefing.

In the primary school category, the first prize was awarded to Nguyen Phuc Hung from class 2B at Quoc Oai Town Primary School. Moving to the secondary school category, the first prize was secured by Tran Nguyen Ngan Ha from the Russian Embassy School, while the special prize was bestowed upon Fokina Kaleria, a student at the Russian Secondary School in Vietnam.
