"Borderless Classrooms" at Olympia

May at the "Purple School" is not just about the sound of cicadas or intense revision hours; it is a series of journeys opening new doors, taking Olympians beyond their familiar classrooms to connect with the world.
 
First Stop: Technology as the Key to Global Challenges

Grade 9 students had the chance to become citizens of a miniature "Climate Neutral City" alongside experts from the Goethe-Institut Hanoi (Germany). Moving beyond dry theories on climate change, the students stepped into the roles of strategic planners, seeking solutions to balance urban development with environmental protection. The lively debates and breakthrough creative ideas showcased a young generation that is both responsible and well-versed in green technology.

Second Stop: A Journey Through History and Innovation at the American Center

On May 13 and continuing on May 18, the Olympia bus carried students from Grades 9, 10, 11, and 12 to The Founders Museum at the American Center Hanoi. Here, students did more than just polish their academic English; they were deeply inspired by stories of pioneers and the ideas that changed the world. Seeing how eagerly they asked questions in English and confidently interacted with international partners, our teachers felt even more certain of the courage within these future "global citizens."

We hope that through these activities, Olympians gain more knowledge and inspiring "hands-on" experiences, staying ready for new international connection projects in the future!
