Nearly 100 students from BIS contributed to the success of the event achieving many trophies, medals and personal bests. There was a fantastic feeling throughout the meet and the days ran smoothly thanks to friendly competitiveness of our swimmers and the help of BIS staff and parents.
It was exciting to see the Most Effectiveteam trophy awarded to BIS HCMC, with the highest average points score per swimmer participating, along with several individual trophies which are listed below:

Once again thank you to all swimmers, spectators and staff who all contributed to the great success of the team.
Mr Vinh, BIS HCMC Head Swim Coach
At BIS HCMC, our story is one of connection, continuity, and care — a place where learning begins with curiosity and ends with confident, compassionate graduates ready to shape the world. Earlier this year, we witnessed a moving reminder of this journey, as eighteen members of our Year 13 Class of 2025 returned to the place where it all began: Early Years Foundation Stages.
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.
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.
