Students studying at local primary, secondary and high schools in flood-torn areas will receive 15kg of rice per month from the national rice reserve depot.
Torrential rain from August 28 to 31 caused serious flash floods in mountainous districts of Muong Lat, Quan Son, Quan Hoa, Ba Thuoc, Cam Thuy, Thach Thanh, Vinh Loc and Yen Dinh.
Muong Lat District was among the most affected localities. Landslides destroyed 15 schools and buried learning equipment, badly affecting the studies of hundreds of local kids.
In the last academic year, provincial authorities offered local students more than 2,600 tonnes of rice.
