Rising from the rubble: Lushan school reopens

Last month marked the end of a long road for children at the Siyan Middle School in Lushan county, Sichuan province.

At last, they were able to move into their new school buildings, nearly three years after a 7-magnitude earthquake left the school and the region devastated.

"Ours used to be the shabbiest buildings in town," said the grade-two student. "But now they are the most beautiful and modern."
