While urban students attended fancy parties in big school halls to celebrate Children's Day on June 1, their peers in the countryside may not have even had a decent playground.
Fengxin rural school, located in Baishui village in East China's Jiangxi province, features only a classroom, an activity room, a teacher's office and a small grassy playground.
The school has 33 students, including 24 pre-school children and nine first-grade students. Fifty-one-year-old Wu Xiaoping is the only teacher in the school.
