Meanwhile, academic and experience activities will be gradually organized to raise learning spirit and creativity of UTS-ers. Please always remember to raise awareness about safety of yourself and society. There are many interesting activities waiting us ahead. Let’s create wonderful memories with UTS!

The essence of Literature are good values as well as eternal renovation and creativity spirit. Therefore, if Literature is just reading and analyzing the literary works, students will not be eager to acquire its good values and open up their inspiration. Through the lesson of making models of literary works, students of Class 7.2 of UTS could soar with their creative ideas. After learning literary works in the Grade 7 Literature program such as Uncle Ho’s simplicity, Non-interference, Hue folk songs performances on the Huong river, etc, students illustrated them by creating models with their own creativity; then they confidently presented their own products in front of the class. This lesson helped UTS-ers choose out the true – good – beautiful details in literary works and show their creativity through models. Moreover, this was an opportunity for students to express their cooperation and team spirit as well as build up the self-awareness in learning. Creating these models inspired students to learn Literature and enhance their artistic sense.

Letters and style of author are tools to express ideas and emotions of literary works. However, with students of US Vietnam Talent International School, their feelings are not just letters and thoughts but more lively through… models! After students of Grade 6 had completed the special subject of “Folk tale”, Ms. I Pha – Literature Teacher gave out an interesting topic: Making models of folk tale to make them more lively! In this project, UTS-ers were free to gather as groups, chose the favorite folk tale as well as details in the folk tale to create their own models. The materials of models were all simple and environmentally-friendly, such as: carton cover, color paper, clay, glue, etc. Creativity of UTS-ers is shown by the final products – models of Thanh Giong, Thach Sanh, Son Tinh Thuy Tinh, Frog in the well, The Six Blind Fortune Tellers and an Elephant, etc. With this project, students were encouraged to prove their self-motivation, read the folk tale carefully and choose the appropriate details to complete models. Their imagination and creativity are gradually developed as well with models bearing the hallmark of themselves. Such practical activities are always focused in UTS in order to raise students’ interest in learning Literature and apply unique ideas to enhance learning efficiency.

  Today (17th of January), UTS sincerely welcomed lots of parents and students from many different schools in Ho Chi Minh city and surrounding provinces to join Math Open Day 2021.

Via that, our little children were able to freely explore their passion for Math: contemplate the science mock-ups created by UTS students, interact with 3D technology, robot assembly, STEM products exhibition. The exhibition and interaction spaces were set up as an adventure to the magic world of numbers which stimulated curiosity of students.

  “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together” – this team spirit is being raised by students of US Vietnam Talent International School at “UTS Sport Games 2021”. With two fascinating events: tug of war and basketball, UTS-ers have shown their strength as well as perfect cooperation among members in order to bring victory to their classes. While the competitions between classes were happening, outside the field of play was the appearance of lovely supporters. They used chalk, board, white paper and wrote cheery words to support their classes. In addition, the shouting and cheering of them added more “heat” to the sport yard of UTS on these competition afternoons. Besides tug of war and basketball, there are some events which are being organized within the framework of “UTS Sport Games 2021”. Let’s wait for the following photos to see how “warriors” of UTS try their best to compete in this sport games!

  Along with tug of war and basketball, swimming is the next event within the framework of “UTS Sport Games 2021”. The swimming pool of UTS welcomed the participation of little swimmers with high spirit. UTS-ers need complete the 25-meter swimming lane within just one chance which required students having good health and high concentration on their own turns. It was so surprised to witness the “fighting” spirit of UTS-ers. All of them tried their best to conquer the swimming lane, even though they were in the first place or left behind. There were some “little swimmers” who were tired but just took a moment to regain the strength and then continued to finish their turns. Supporters including students, teachers and staffs of UTS cheered the swimmers with all their hearts. Everybody created an exciting sport day after classes with books and knowledge. Hope that UTS-ers will always maintain their passion with sport to build a strong physical strength for themselves.

Raising awareness of students about animal protection, especially rare species of animals which are becoming endangered, is very essential. Because it must be these kids who will make lives of animals better and safer in the future. Students of Class 6.1 had chances to express their thoughts about this topic through English mini show “Raising an awareness of animal protection”. With colorful paintings, UTS-ers bravely raised their voices about protecting various animals such as bear, rhino, tiger, panda, lion, whale. Also, they were acknowledged about their responsibilities in protecting these animals with the final target is balancing the biosystem and ensuring the sustainable development of human beings. Through this class, loving spirit of animals and surrounding environment had been encouraged in each student. Moreover, they learnt that animal protection should be pushed not only in Vietnam but also all over the world – where there are numerous species of animals facing with danger everyday and requiring helps of everyone.

Students of UTS already knew about “Shark Tank” – a program which young entrepreneur can receive investment for their business ventures. And now they can challenge themselves with the “Dolphin Tank” version in their English classes. In Class 6.3, students established assumed fashion companies and created their exclusive costumes for 50 years later. They planned in detail to produce their costumes as well as use smart promotional programs to increase companies’ revenue. By using their diverse English vocabulary, they convinced potential customers choosing their costumes in the future. With Class 8.1, scale of fashion companies was extended. Not just limiting in establishing companies and choosing costumes, students have to choose the market, build suitable Marketing campaigns, allocate costs reasonably and calculate profits so as investors can invest in their companies. They confidently completed the Q&A section in English with investors which proved their bravery and strong critical thinking. UTS-ers approached the “start-up” stories in a fantastic way. These classes did not focus on teaching students about business knowledge but provided them with skills such as teamwork, giving presentation in English, convincing others and standing on their own opinions.
