The opening of the Hội Trí Tri by the Governor-General of French Indochina Jean-Marie de Lanessan on 1 April 1892.

The Hội Trí Tri (會致知) or the Société d’Enseignement Mutuel du Tonkin (1892-1946) was an educational society in French colonial Tonkin.[1] It was part of the modernist movement.[2] The Association for Mutual Education was behind the short-lived Tonkin Free School (1907-1908) at 59 Hàng Đàn where Phạm Duy Tốn was one of the teachers.[3] The chairman was Nguyễn Văn Tố.
