danh từ which means school in Vietnam

Entrance of the school HCM, Vietnam

 
This is one of the many places which i visited when i was in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam. Well i cannot help myself as i feel that i like to compare  and observe the education system from the one in Malaysia. Therefore i make it a point to visit the school of the countries that I visit. Beside I had some "inside" help in getting into this place. Well the British International School is a well established school which caters for the children of expatriates who are living and working there. Since the economy of Vietnam is booming, lots of companies have invested here since labor and raw material is really cheap.


During my visit there, the children of various ages had organized some sort of Musical Concert. This pictures will show you the highlights of the concert and the performance. It was well organized by the teachers in charge as well as teacher assistance. Well it was held in the school indoor basketball hall.

At the end, the headmaster was thanking the teachers and parents for their support and also the children for their wonderful performance.

Well it is nice to be able to compare the way things are done and how they are carried out in different school around the world. Well the children had fun, the parents were busy taking photos of their children. Parents response was very encouraging with many parents taking time off from work just to give their support to their children which means a lot to the children. Well i too had lots of fun and it was really an interesting day of learning for a simple teacher like me.
Making learning fun and with lots of activities which encourage the children to actively participate will not only build the child's confidence but also leave the child with fond memories of his childhood.
