A teacher from Naha Primary School carries two students on his shoulders as they brave torrential flows to cross a river on their way to school in Funing county, Wenshan Zhuang and Miao autonomous prefecture, Southwest China's Yunnan province on June 20. [Photo/IC] This river crossing near the school is reportedly the only quasi-safe route to Naha Primary School during the rainstorms in June. Even still, the water level rises so much that it is impossible for children to cross, forcing teachers to help them get across the tumultuous flows. The teachers say they themselves are frightened by the fast torrents sometimes, and hope a bridge will be built there. |
