20 students from the quake zone have been given a chance to study in Beijing.

The 20 students will spend the next two years studying in Beijing.

Besides the basics, they will also have some vocational courses such as Electronic Technics and Hotel Management.

Feng Ruyi, deputy-dean of BN Vocational School, said, "Some students have expressed their willingness to study in Beijing. When they finish, they can use their skills to rebuild their ruined homes. We all support them."

To make them feel at home, the school has provided a tutor for each of them, as well as some basic supplies.

To return to the classroom is the dream of every child after the earthquake.

These 20 have been given the chance, and the number will definitely grow.
