Training on Fire Prevention and Firefighting at UTS: To help students acquire skills to protect themselves

Equipping students with skills to protect themselves and to handle emergency situation is one of the top priorities at UTS, especially fire prevention and firefighting skills.

From the school’s perspective, fire prevention and firefighting activities are always carefully prepared in the school operation including to fully equip all students, teachers, and staff at UTS with necessary knowledge and competencies. This is essential for everyone to proactively and promptly respond to the unwanted events that not only might happen at UTS campus but also anywhere else.

At the beginning of each academic year, training sessions for teachers and staff are always integrated in the Professional Development Week to ensure the safest teaching and learning during the academic year. In early October, all UTS students completed the training session and gained useful knowledge in protecting themselves and their families in case there is an incident.

The training session was delivered following the main topics, including:

1. Identify and instruct on the use of fire safety equipment

2. Instruct on fire evacuation plans and necessary steps during emergencies

3. Important notes and fire alarm signals at UTS

To help students better visualize the possible scenarios, the instructor provided specific detailed demonstrations and practiced solving situations based on the shared principles with students. In addition to notes and guidelines to do when there is a fire, students were also informed about the causes that can lead to fires and explosions, thereby minimizing the possibility of situations and having initial preventive measures.

The information conveyed in the fire prevention and firefighting training session at UTS is not limited to the application within the school campus. More than that, students are expected to be well-informed and well-applied in their daily life. UTS aims to build a practical foundation so that students are always safe no matter where they are.

Hopefully, through the fire prevention and firefighting training session at UTS, students will gain necessary knowledge, know how to proactively protect themselves and people around them when an incident occurs.

UTS House Debate Championship – The arena of argumentation & multidimensional thinking of Primary UTS-ers

Last Friday morning, April 10, 2026, the Primary School House Debate at UTS took place in an exciting and dynamic atmosphere. More than just an academic competition, it was a learning playground where young UTS-ers could grow, learn, and respect one another. Throughout the event, students developed essential skills in listening, critical thinking, and confidently expressing their viewpoints, while fostering a spirit of open-minded and respectful dialogue. At UTS, each House is not only a team but also a representation of a core value that every UTSer strives toward. Each House carries its own unique identity, contributing to a diverse yet united student community. These values were clearly reflected in every debate round, as students actively listened, responded thoughtfully, and respected differing perspectives. This year, teams engaged in timely, future-oriented topics that required deep thinking and multi-dimensional perspectives: In the English debate round, students explored the topic: “It’s better to reduce plastic use than to ban it completely” — presenting diverse viewpoints that balanced practicality and long-term impact in protecting a greener future. In the Vietnamese debate round, students discussed: “Winning is more important than enjoyment” — a seemingly simple question that sparked meaningful reflections on the value of effort and the true meaning of perseverance. The House Debate concluded with many memorable moments, as awards were presented to the most outstanding teams and individuals: Vietnamese Debate Category: 🥇 First Place: Ruby House 🥈 Second Place: Citrine House 🥉 Third Place: Aquamarine House 🌟 Best Speaker: Trần Hoàng Minh (Grade 5, Ruby House) English Debate Category: 🥇 First Place: Emerald House 🥈 Second Place: Ruby House 🥉 Third Place: Sapphire House 🌟 Best Speaker: Trần Vương Minh Khôi (Grade 3, Emerald House) Congratulations to all winning teams!
