BIS is teaming up with Rethink Plastic Vietnam for the November Plastic Awareness Month. Are you up for the Challenge???
Single-use plastics are a big threat to our health, our environment and to the world. So we all have to join hands to reduce the use of these plastics, especially if we're to reach our target of eliminating single-use plastic from BIS campuses in 2020!
Rethink Plastic Vietnam has created an online competition which will give participants an insight into their current use of single-use plastic and encourage each and every one of us to make easy, but very important, steps towards reduction and positive behavioural change.
The Plastic Diet Challenge starts with a ‘baseline’ survey and will be followed by 3 weekly surveys and “tips & tricks” over the course of the month of November. Your task is to try to reduce the amount of single-use plastic you use each week.
When the Plastic Diet Challenge is completed, we will announce the winners and we can find out which BIS House is our biggest reducer!
So are you up for the challenge???

Sincerely,
The ReThink Plastic Vietnam Team
We are thrilled that four of our Year 13 students have recently gained offers from ‘Elite’ USA universities.
With over 1,200 students, staff, and parents participating in the 5km run or walk, the event was a true reflection of the school’s commitment to fostering a strong sense of community.
At BIS HCMC, our Primary Expeditions are more than just school trips—they are life-changing expeditions that shape our students into confident, independent individuals. Earlier this month, our Year 4, 5, and 6 students embarked on thrilling journeys to Long Hai, Can Gio, and Cat Tien.
What do you do when you have school uniforms that are now too small, or you no longer need them, but you don’t want to simply throw them away? For BIS HCMC parents, Bibi, Margot, and Ying, this dilemma sparked an inspiring solution—the Parent Uniform Upcycling Team.
