ISHCMC Donates Bicycle to Child in Need in Mekong Delta

During last year’s Festive Bazaar at our school, our Head of School, Mrs. Kim Green won a bicycle in a raffle. She generously donated the bike to , our local charity partner at the event. We are delighted to share that this donated bicycle has since been delivered to Hoai Thuong, a diligent Grade 8 student studying at a local school in the Mekong Delta region. Thuong’s family is facing financial difficulties, but with the delivery of this bicycle, she will be able to access education more easily.

The ability to travel is a critical factor in ensuring access to education, especially in rural areas. Many students like Thuong have to walk long distances to get to school. The provision of a donated bicycle can have a significant impact on their lives, making it easier for them to attend school regularly, avoid fatigue, and arrive on time. It’s a simple yet effective solution that can remove significant barriers to education for financially challenged students.

Our donated bicycle is just one of the many ways in which individuals can help to support local charities and communities. By giving back to organizations that work tirelessly to make a difference, we can help to create positive and lasting change in our society. Through initiatives like this, we can turn small actions into outcomes that matter.

Bicycle Donation Reaches to the Child in Need

Saigonchildren has played a vital role in facilitating our donation, ensuring the delivery of the bike to Thuong. Their mission is to tackle poverty by providing education, training, and healthcare support to disadvantaged children and young people in Vietnam. The donated bicycle is just one of the many ways in which they achieve their goals, and we are proud to support their efforts as a charity partner.

In conclusion, Mrs. Kim Green’s donated bicycle has made an important difference in the life of Hoai Thuong, enhancing her education access and improving the quality of her life. We encourage everyone to consider donating to causes and charities they care about to help support the local community. Every little bit counts and can go a long way towards creating meaningful change. Let’s continue to work together towards a brighter future for all.

We hope to work with Saigonchildren with many more charity projects in the months / years ahead.

Confetti the Yeti Inspires Growth Mindset Movement

Student-Driven Brilliance: Confetti the Yeti Inspires Growth Mindset Movement – In the vibrant halls of Studio 4 and Studio 5, a remarkable group of young leaders emerged, driven by the powerful concept of a growth mindset. Alin, Lucy, Hana, Sophia, Mila, Esther, and Lilac, known as the Growth Mindset Leaders from Primary, embarked on a transformative project aimed at nurturing a more positive and expansive mindset within their community. Their mission was clear: to shift people’s perspectives from fixed mindsets to the growth mindset.

At the core of their initiative was the desire to illuminate the profound significance of the word “yet.” The leaders sought to inspire others to recognize that their current limitations were only temporary hurdles on the path to growth and achievement. They firmly believed that individuals possessed the innate capacity to develop and improve, filling any gaps or shortcomings they might perceive in themselves.

Confetti the Yeti
Confetti the Yeti

To effectively convey this message in an engaging and memorable way, the ingenious leaders conceived “Confetti the Yeti,” a vibrant and enchanting mascot whose body was adorned with colorful confetti. Reflecting on the origin of their creation, Mila, one of the Mindset Leaders, shared how the repeated emphasis on the word “yet” during the creative process sparked the idea for the name “Yeti”: The confetti-filled body of the mascot symbolized a vivid and potent representation of the project’s essencean embodiment of brightness and empowerment.

The brilliance and creativity displayed by these young students throughout the project were truly exceptional. Notably, their early development of leadership qualities served as a testament to their remarkable potential.

What set them apart, however, was their unwavering commitment to translating their growth mindsets into tangible positive impacts on the community. It was with eager anticipation that their mentors and peers looked forward to the Mindset Leaders expanding their message to the Primary Campus, inspiring even more students to foster and cultivate a growth mindset.

ISHCMC Students at Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam

Recently, students from 91勛圖厙 had a unique opportunity to attend , a business luncheon organized by the , where they gained insights into what the future holds for businesses and individuals in the country.泭

The event featured a panel of experts in finance, technology, politics, and other fields.

The event began with a warm welcome from Winnie Lam, one of the chamber’s board members, who introduced the lineup of industry-leading experts in Vietnam. During the luncheon, the students had the chance to learn about a wide range of topics across various industries and fields. From the potential risks and opportunities that come with investing in different markets and the latest trends to the possible impacts of new technologies across industries and how the real estate landscape will affect business in the year ahead. The students also had the opportunity to ask their own questions and engage in discussions with the panelists. Questions from the students covered sustainability solutions and how they will integrate with business trends in the year ahead, as well as trade with South America and what opportunities might arise in 2023.

Dorothy, a student who attended the event, shared her thoughts on the experience,

“I’m very interested in the reality of sustainable businesses. Currently in Vietnam, it’s very hard to implement these businesses as we’re not particularly a developed country yet and wages are still rather low. Iimplementing something such as sustainability generally is very difficult.”

She continued,

“Listening to industry leaders who have had extensive research on these matters, really gave me some great advice and insights. For example, I remember one of the speakers saying that it is more important for us to focus on genuine utility over aesthetic value, and I think that’s very important for sustainable businesses now, especially in Vietnam.”

Adrian, another student who attended the event said,泭

“I really learned a lot from this experience. Hearing terms that we hear in class, being used by industry experts in very applicable situations, really helps you understand how they’re used and applied, as well as how we may apply these concepts in our own lives.”


For 91勛圖厙 students, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam’s business luncheon provided a valuable learning experience. It gave them the opportunity to learn about the latest trends and predictions in the business world, as well as engage in discussions and network with industry professionals.

Best key criteria to choose an international school in Vietnam

In recent years, international schools have been preferred by many parents. The reasons behind this popularity are the benefits when studying in a global environment with modern facilities and experienced teaching staff. Moreover, the teaching approach in these schools is reality-driven, giving students not only knowledge but also experiences. However, there are various international schools, and choosing the most appropriate one for your child is not an easy task. This article will provide some key criteria for choosing an international school in Vietnam. Keep scrolling to figure them out!

The definition of the international school

An international school focuses on developing a global academic environment. Its curriculum is often established by prestigious institutions around the world to provide students with a solid and globally recognised education. In addition, international schools often teach both local and foreign students, enabling students to become familiar with many different cultures. Thus, when going to an international school, your child will be more confident and have a global mindset.

There are two types of international schools: Monolingual and Multilingual. Depending on the type, international schools will choose the corresponding curriculum, which is designed according to the educational standards of developed countries such as the US, UK, etc.

The definition of the international school

4 criteria to choose an international school in Vietnam

To determine whether it is the best choice for your kid, you must review the school based on the following criteria:泭 curriculum, staff, facilities, and services it offers.

Programmes at the international school

The curriculum is one of the elements parents should take into account because it represents the teaching style of a school. A learning environment with a proper approach will support students to self-study, actively explore and develop critical thinking. Moreover, the teaching style and the support of the teachers will inspire the student’s passion for learning.

Moreover, the choice of study program also depends on the child’s future orientation. For example, if your child wants to enroll in prestigious universities in the US or UK, you should choose international schools with programs. If you want to develop a global mindset for your child, studying in multilingual international schools will improve your child’s knowledge about cultures around the world.

Furthermore, you should also prioritize international schools with a lot of extracurricular activities. For pupils to be fully grown, a curriculum that incorporates soft skill development programs and extracurricular activities is vital. Students take part in these activities will be more motivated, self-assured, and capable of fulfilling their potential.

Programmes - one of criteria to choose an international school

facilities - one of criteria to choose an international school

Support services

When choosing a school for your child, you should pay attention to the support services. A good international school should include a home shuttle service and a team for student counseling.

Benefits when participating in Summer Camp in 91勛圖厙

Summer Camp in 91勛圖厙 is not simply a way to pass the time. At Summer Camp, your child will play, learn and experience. Most importantly, Summer Camps can help your child discover and understand themselves by giving them new hobbies, fostering independence, encouraging creativity, etc. All main benefits of joining Summer Camp in 91勛圖厙 will be listed below:

      • Teamwork: Summer Camp includes a variety of team-building activities. Children need to use effective communication, problem-solving, and decision-making skills to perform excellent teamwork. Summer Camps can be a great way to gain these life skills.

      • Confidence and Independence: Educating an independent child involves teaching responsibility, encouraging discovery, and providing a safe environment for a child to make decisions independently. Summer Camp promotes all three of these aspects. Accordingly, a child will be far from their parents while at camp. This is an important time for children to discover their sense of identity. When children explore their interests and understand their own skills and weaknesses, they grow more personality.

      • Free Play: Every day, children establish the habit of arriving on time at school, completing homework, and then going to bed. Summer Camp is organized with less control than school, giving children the time and chance to play freely. Free play is necessary for a child’s development since it helps them to explore their imaginations and develop creative thinking skills.

      • Friendship: At the camp, your child can meet other kids. Additionally, they can make new friends through overcoming challenges together.

    • Personal Growth: Summer Camp encourages children to go outside of their comfort zones and explore themselves, which is one of its primary benefits. Children might use this as an opportunity to learn new skills by participating in some things they have never done before.
