EMASI Van Phuc Bilingual Education Update March 2023

March 2023 Overview

Dear Friends,

March was certainly a month that brought out the best of our school community in every aspect of our mission.

From encouraging personal excellence and fitness through athletic competition, pursuing academic excellence through our academic exams for Cambridge and MOET, we emphasized Vietnamese values and respect through our Women’s Day celebration; and we fostered global understanding by welcoming students and teachers from the UK for a two day cultural exchange. This month had it all.

Here are our five highlights for March:

1. Women’s Day Celebrations

2. Cross Campus EMASI Sports Tournament

3. MOET and Cambridge Testing

4. British Student Cultural Exchange

5. Elementary Sports Day

And with March behind us, we have a full and exciting April ahead which will include a debate competition, MOET final exams, school trips and much, much more.

I've posted the video at the bottom of this post, so be sure to check it out!

Parent Partnership in your Child's Journey

Everything that we’re doing serves one main purpose: To develop your children to be happy, healthy, responsible, and empowered people, capable and motivated to reach their full positive potential.

Next week, families will be receiving updates regarding their children’s progress in both MOET and the International Program. The objective of this is to help ensure families are aware of their child's progress and to arrange meetings where necessary so collaboration can take place on finding solutions to any possible challenges.

From the International Program, families will receive a progress report which will include an effort score.

The A in EMASI is for ART

As you may know, our school community annually produces a book based on our school values. You can find last year’s e-book at www.emasibook.com

This year we continue this excellent tradition and once again, we’re calling on our students, teachers and even families to contribute art, poetry, even videos of dance and musical performances. The theme of this year’s book is Global Understanding – directly from our Mission Statement. You can submit work for this very meaningful project here. Together we can bring our school values to life.

And not many schools in the world have a dedicated art gallery. We are one of the fortunate few. And you’re invited to visit and enjoy the incredible exhibit we currently have on display called 'No more, not yet.' You can learn more about the exhibit here.

The exhibit is open from 10 am to 4 pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. Families can also make an appointment to visit by contacting our school’s Art Space Manager, Mr Nhat Vo.

Women's Day

On the occasion of International Women’s Day, I would like to extend warm wishes to all of the wonderful women in our vibrant school community.

Women’s Day is a very meaningful day at EMASI Van Phuc. We are blessed to have inspiring and strong women on our leadership team, faculty and staff and in all of our EMASI families.

Together our school is committed to developing our girls to be confident, empowered and ready to flourish in an everchanging world.

Women’s Day is also a time for us to reflect on how the men and boys of our community can be the best friends, partners and supporters of women.

We recently had the opportunity to mark the occasion of Women’s Day with assemblies and performances by both our elementary and secondary/high school students. Check out the video highlights here.

Happy Women’s Day to all.
