A journey of connection, experience, and spreading love

March at PennSchool came to a close with a vibrant and meaningful series of events, offering our #HomeOfTheEagles diverse experiences – from spreading compassion and connecting across cultures to discovering themselves through real-world activities.

Sharing Love on International Women’s Day (March 8)

With the theme “Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls,” International Women’s Day at PennSchool became an opportunity for the student community to spread messages of respect, equality, and gratitude. The campus was filled with heartfelt wishes, meaningful appreciation boxes, and emotional portraits honoring the women students admired.

This year’s celebration was even more special with the participation of parents, as students confidently took the stage to present inspiring female role models. These moments were not only memorable but also a clear reflection of how students are developing their skills, critical thinking, and confidence in a modern learning environment.

Vietnam – UK Cultural Exchange – Connecting Beyond Borders

As part of the Vietnam – UK Cultural Exchange “Beyond Borders: Cultural Encounters, Shared Stories,” PennSchool had the honor of welcoming students and teachers from Oxford Spires Academy (UK). The exchange brought a wide range of enriching experiences – from dynamic team-building challenges, exploring Vietnamese traditional cuisine – sweet popiah, exciting drone control activities, to meaningful interactions that helped students connect and understand one another more deeply.

Beyond the activities, our #HomeOfTheEagles also demonstrated hospitality and cultural appreciation through thoughtfully prepared traditional gifts. A special highlight was a cross-cultural artwork created by the Art teacher, symbolizing a meaningful and emotional journey of connection. This annual international exchange continues to open doors for students to broaden their perspectives, develop global thinking, and build meaningful connections beyond borders.

Field Trips & Teambuilding – Opening Experiences, Building Confidence

Students from Grades 6 – 9 kicked off their experiential learning field trip series at VinWonders Grand Park, combined with energetic team-building activities. In the lively environment of water games and group challenges, students had the opportunity to strengthen teamwork, develop collaboration skills, and build confidence and resilience. More than just fun, the trip became a meaningful journey where students created lasting memories with friends and teachers.

Continuing the journey, other grade levels will explore Dam Sen Cultural Park, where students will not only enjoy water-based activities but also engage in the “Green Classroom” program – learning about coconut trees and enhancing their awareness of environmental protection.

From heartfelt moments to hands-on experiences, this series of events has nurtured compassion, global thinking, confidence, and connection among students. Each experience is not only a cherished memory but also a stepping stone that empowers our #HomeOfTheEagles to grow and move forward with confidence on their journey ahead.
