Although clubs are optional they are strongly encouraged because we see a double opportunity in such an enrichment programme. Not only is there a range of skills and experiences on offer, but we can also be sure that each activity, by presenting an extension to the day, will contribute to English language practice and acquisition. Demandforsomeclubsmeantthattheywerefull,meaningthat some students were allocated their second choice. Next term those students will get priority when the clubs change. Primary clubs begin next week and will offer a similar range of activities. A letter went home yesterday inviting parents to a Coffee Morning at 09.00 on Wednesday 28 September in the Main Hall. At the meeting you will be able to find out how our parent group can contribute to the school communitys development. If you could return the replyslip it will help us make the necessary arrangements. T担i r畉t vui khi th畉y h畉u h畉t h畛c sinh h叩o h畛c tham gia c叩c c但u l畉c b畛 ngo畉i kh坦a di畛n ra trong tu畉n qua.

- 2. 2 F1 Coffee Morning for Parents On Friday 16th September we had an excellent turnout for our first BVIS coffee morning for parents. A talk was given by Co Tuee about the settling in period for our very youngest children followed by a practical workshop led by Co Tara and Co Vi about Sensory Learning in an Early Years setting.As you can see from the photographs, our F1 parents were encouraged to have a go themselves and explore the textures and materials available. These types of activities are avery good way of helping children to develop their language and understanding of theworld around them.

The children are all members of Class 6B and I hope they will take their new responsibilities seriously, as well as feel proud of their position in school. One of their weekly tasks is to collect the House Points that children throughout the Primary School have earned for their behaviour, attitude or learning. We then discover which house has won the House Cup for the most House Points in our weekly assembly on Friday mornings. Can your child tell you if Dalat (green), Hanoi (red), Hue (yellow) or Saigon (blue) won this week? 畛i tr動畛ng Ch炭c m畛ng c叩c em h畛c sinh kh畛i Ti畛u h畛c 達 動畛c ch畛n 畛 tr畛 thnh 畛i tr動畛ng. 但y l nh畛ng h畛c sinh c畛a l畛p 6B v t担i hi v畛ng c叩c em t畛 ho v畛 ch畛c v畛 ny v lu担n nghi棚m t炭c hon thnh t畛t vai tr嘆 c畛a m狸nh.

- 3. 3 End of school A 10 week programme of Extra Curricular Activities for Primary children at BVIS begins on Monday 26th September. Children are looking forward to developing their skills in clubs ranging from animated story club to i-robot. A reminder that school finishes at 14:35 unless your child is participating in a club. If you have made an arrangement with the class teachers, your childs older sibling may take responsibility for him/her in the library after school until you are able to collect them. However, unaccompanied Primary children must wait in room 013B on the ground floor. Please remember that the children have had a busy, challenging day at school learning intwo languages so collecting them on time is very important. Thank you for your cooperation. Speeches were the focus of this weeks PSHE lessons with the goal of being elected onto the first ever BVIS Student Council. I was really impressed by how well prepared the students were. There were many interesting points made as to what ideas the candidate had should they be voted as Form Class Representative.Congratulations to those students who were elected.I will introduce you to each student in next weeks newsletter.
