Huoi Tinh hamlet is 15km from the centre of Bo Sinh commune, making transportation difficult. The facility has 41 students aged between 2 and 5, 100% of whom belong to the Mong, Khang, and Thai ethnic minority groups. It has one solidly built classroom, however, teaching and learning conditions remain limited due to the lack of playground, teaching equipment, and tools.
