Principal’s Message

 

01

Reading lights the future, habits shape growth

To the Primary School students, Principal Lan reminded: “Reading is the foundation of academic success. The more you read, the stronger your understanding becomes—and language, math, and science will feel easier.” He encouraged children to start small: be polite, help each other, follow rules, and finish homework on time. These habits will pave the way for learning and fill the campus with warmth.

 

02

Climb with challenges, unleash youthful potential

To the Middle School students, he said: “Youth is about exploration, and challenges are the ladder.” Whether in science, sports, or arts, true breakthroughs come from respecting rules and working as a team. “When we protect fairness together, everyone discovers their own ‘I can’.”

 

03

Guided by thought, anchored in responsibility

To the High School students, he advised: “Let your thoughts steer your direction, and let discipline be your vessel.” Independence, he stressed, means responsibility as much as freedom. Classroom discipline protects learning, and academic honesty preserves fairness. In this soil, students can ask: “What kind of person do I want to become?”—and grow with both ideals and the times.

 

3Moments of Recognition

A highlight of the ceremony was the awards presentation, honoring students who excelled in academics, character, and service. The Academic Excellence Award, Best Student Award, and Volunteer Award celebrated role models whose stories, like autumn sunshine, inspire the entire community for the year ahead.

4The First Lesson

After the ceremony, students returned to their classrooms for the very first lesson of the new year. Desks were neatly arranged, books and stationery set in place, and chatter filled the air as classmates shared summer stories. Teachers introduced the curriculum with smiles, guiding students to set their learning goals. Each classroom buzzed with energy, each student ready for the challenges to come.

 

5A New Beginning

As the opening ceremony came to a close, the rhythm of campus life was reignited. New friends, new challenges, new hopes—all began to grow on this autumn morning.

May our students carry curiosity and focus throughout the year, turning each day’s effort into steps toward a brighter future.
