“Brilliant Books” Week - We need volunteers:
To run the stalls on the exchange days. The time slots are 7:40am to 8:00am and 2:15pm to 3:00pm
If you drop or pick up your child, please consider giving a hand!
You can sign up online : http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0d4dafaa29a4ff2-book or using the sheets displayed on the board in the foyer.
Collection days: This year the Brilliant Book Swap will be linked to our community programme, therefore the rule has changed. For every two books brought to school, the children will receive one token. The second book will be donated to our community partners. The community partners are; Anh Minh School (school for children who are hearing impaired), Binh Trieu School and Thien Phuoc (picture books only).
All books must be in good condition. Foreign language books are also welcome.
Musical project for parents:
Do you like to sing or play an instrument? We know we have a couple of talented musicians and singers among our parents. They’ve already proved it during our special TX events. The Parent Group is now offering you an opportunity to join in a special musical project; performing a song during the Christmas concert. All details are not yet finalised, but the aim is for the song to be sung by parents along with the TX choir. Rehearsals will not take too much time; we will soon be prepared to sing on the day. It will be a challenge as the song is in a foreign language. You can listen to it here:
The song is about hope and peace. Originally performed by Demis Roussos in the 90’s, then by Worlds Apart (UK famous boys band) in 2007 and now by a group of children under the Unicef banner. We are counting on you! Please send us an email to tx.ptg.bis@gmail.com or whatsapp Anne privately to be added to the list.

Parent Group Meeting
This week we had our first Parent Group meeting of the academic year with Ms Mary. 12 parents attended to discuss the events planned for Term 1 and the next steps for our Class Reps. It is great to learn that we now have a Class Rep for all but 3 classes! F1, F2 and Y6X are still in need of a Class Rep, so if your child is in one of these classes and you are interested in becoming the Class Rep, please speak to Ms Mary or your child’s class teacher.
All parents are welcome to attend the parent group meetings to discuss new ideas and community events. The next Parent Group meeting is at the end of Term 1 on Wednesday 7th December
Have a lovely weekend and see you all next Tuesday for lunch.
Anne on behalf of the Parent Group.
Joining BIS HCMC in Foundation Stage 2 (F2) is a fantastic age to begin a lifetime love for learning, encouraged and nurtured by our experienced and committed class and specialist teachers, who personalise learning unique to every child. We look back at what our F2s have experienced in less than one term already at BIS HCMC.
