Is it an advantage to speak more than one language? Yes. Bilingualism helps children’s learning because they can think about their ideas in both languages. They can communicate with more people in their community and internationally and understand different cultures.

On Monday, November 9th, a group of staff and Students from Chuyen Biet Rang Dong school visited us here at BVIS. This school is one of our new link schools within the Binh Chanh community.

At the beginning of September, we were very proud to hear of the publication of 6 children’s book written by Ms. Truc, our legendary Librarian. These books are from the series “Educate young children’s imagination”, a project that Ms. Truc has conceived during her time at BVIS, and one she feels very committed to.

What are we learning to do when we play with water? (Learning Goals for children who are 12-22 months old).

Earlier today the Primary Student Council visited BIS – TX Campus, in the first cross-campus Student Council Meeting. The aim of the meeting was to get to know the other young representatives and build both personal and social relationships that the children could access as another source of reference when thinking about their role here at BVIS.

This term, all of our Primary children will participate in an educational visit. Indeed, Y2 children visited the Water Puppets show on Tuesday of this week as the entry point for their new Lien Ket topic and on Wednesday Y5 visited the Bitexco Tower for their new topic, “Rivers”.
