Notes from the Head of School

Dear Parents,

Tomorrow the official 25th birthday celebrations begin with the SCO Spring Fair. You will find some special

events and activities to mark this historic year for the school and we hope each and every community

member comes out to join in the celebration. In addition to the usual games, food, music, kiosks and

auction, there will be a special birthday celebration complete with balloons and a huge community cake. I

look forward to seeing you there.

Exactly one month from Saturday, on 13 April, we will hold our 25th Birthday Ball celebration. Tickets go on sale beginning

tomorrow at the Spring Fair so be sure to buy them before they run out. We are especially pleased to have three former

heads of school who are returning for the celebration. This will include our first head of school from 1988-1990, Dr. Alice-

Anne Winner. Also joining us will be the current of UNIS New York, Mr. Sal Uy. This gala should be a wonderful evening

to celebrate our first 25 years.

Respectfully,

Dr. Barder, Head of School

Notes from the Elementary School Principal

STUDENT LED CONFERENCES (Tuesday 19 March 2013)

The time is drawing near for the ES student led conferences. This is an annual event at UNIS

Hanoi in which I am looking forward to participating and enjoying during my first one this year.

The school has identified benefits to including this type of event in the calendar.

Student Benefits

Increases accountability for their own learning and become actively involved

Helps them evaluate their own learning

Greater commitment to their own learning

Builds confidence and self esteem

Builds communication and critical thinking skills

Places more responsibility on students and parents

Spotlights the student as central to learning

Parent Benefits

Increased amount of concrete information given to parents

Opportunity to learn more about their child’s learning and skills

Actively taking part in their child’s education

Can use mother tongue – or hear their child manage in English.

Eliminates some potential culture pressure associated with the formal interviews conducted at other times of the

year

By now you will have received your appointment time and you will see that families have been spread out throughout the day

to ensure that there is enough space and time for each child to be able to share their learning and participate in the activities

in both the homeroom and the specialist teaching areas without overcrowding. The teachers have carefully chosen activities

that will help the children demonstrate and explain a variety of aspects of their learning and we hope this will help you

develop a deeper understanding of how the children learn as well as what they learn. Please make sure that you visit both

homeroom and specialist areas if you can. Your child will lead the way!

The teacher’s role is very different to the traditional parent teacher conference.

Most of the their responsibilities occur prior to the conferences taking place.

They have been:

Training the students and giving them time to practice and role play

Providing time for students to gather all their work, book work, ICT, art work

Encouraging students to accept responsibility for their own learning.

Assisting student to critically evaluate their own learning

On the day they will help to engage the parent and student in focused dialogue if the child needs some initial support and

encouragement.

At the end of the conference please take time to reflect with your child. We hope you find the experience both informative

and enjoyable.

Notes from the MSHS Assistant Principal

The Grade Trips are finally upon us. Both students and teachers are excited about the opportunities this week will bring for

making memories and cementing friendships. Many hours have gone into ensuring that the trips will be rewarding, safe and

educationally valuable.

Please note that each grade level has one person who will remain at UNIS Hanoi who will be in daily contact with a trip

leader. If you need to contact your child or a trip leader, please go through the UNIS Hanoi point of contact listed below.

Please select this link to obtain a mobile number for the contact person you wish you talk with.

We look forward to hearing about the many adventures and learning opportunities upon your child’s return.

Grade 3-5 Students Finish Spring MAP Testing

Our students in grades 3-5 have completed their spring MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) tests and the MAP reports

will be sent home electronically on Thursday March 21 via the ISIS Family system. You will receive an email on Thursday

indicating that your child’s report is ready and additional information on how to access the report in ISIS.

Please join us on Thursday, March 28 in the Community Room from 6-6.45pm to answer questions you

may have about the test or about how to read the report. The purpose of this session will be to help you understand how to

read the MAP report and to learn more about the MAP test in general. We encourage you to attend this session if you are

new to UNIS Hanoi or to the MAP test. This will not be a time to discuss your individual child’s results, but a general ses-

sion to assist parents in understanding how to read the reports.

If you have any questions please contact Meagan Enticknap-Smith, Director of Learning at dol@unishanoi.org

Grade 12 Mock Exam - March 15 to 28

This week the year 12 students began their Mock exams. For some students the exams are an opportunity to demonstrate

how prepared they are for their Exams in May. For other students it is an opportunity to learn what is needed in order to be

prepared for the exams. Either way the Mock exams are important for your child. Exams will run from March 15 to 28.

During DP mock exams all IB/DP rules apply.

Please be aware that the first session of exams exams start at 8:15. Follow this link to find the schedule for the exams.

If a student is late for the exam they will not be given additional time. We have incorporated breaks between each exam

and as a result the start times for exam session 2 and 3 will vary.

During Mock exam week, students need to be on campus only when they are sitting an exam.

The canteen will not be serving lunch during the exam week, but it will have sandwiches, pizza ( deli items) for you to purchase.

If your child has a fever during the exam week a doctor’s note must be submitted in order for a make-up exam to be

considered.

School Community Organisation News

SILENT AUCTION

As part of the 2013 UNIS Spring Fair, we will be holding the Flower Silent Auction with donated prizes from hotels,

restaurants, spas and other businesses used by our UNIS Hanoi community.

Last year with our community’s generous support, the auction raised funds to support a wide range of charity and

community projects. For example, we support Nhat Tan Music Scholarship which funds local Vietnamese students to learn

an instrument and English at UNIS Hanoi and play in our school band.

Let us hope to be able to repeat that success again this year.

Follow the link for the list of businesses participating for the auction:

Follow the link for the Silent Auction rules: Please READ the rules very carefully and if you have any questions, please

My name is Bryony Rickard and as a Grade 10 student I have to complete a Personal Project. I

wanted to get in contact with UNIS’ Alumni so that our current community could get a better

sense of what our school has been through to become what it is today.

This is the final article! Thank you all so much for reading this page these last 13 editions! Please

visit my website HERE for all the entries I received and a link to all the editions of my Tin Tuc

articles!

Bryony Rickard, Grade 10 Student

Where are you from?

I am from New Delhi, India

Where are you living now and what are you doing (job)?

Currently living in New Delhi, India. I am a banking

consultant and I was working with Oracle corporation and

now work with a top Indian IT company HCL

TECHNOLOGIES.

What is your favourite memory from UNIS Hanoi?

I have fond memory of my teachers and the way they taught.

As I had come from a different teaching methodology in

India, I was awe struck by the way they made us learn, it was

fun. I vividly remember everything about UNIS even after

22/23 years. Our extracurricular activities like swimming,

playing sports- table tennis, volleyball and baseball. We also

acted in a movie – Dien Bien Phu (except that where we were

supposed to appear, the scene was deleted in the last

moment), nevertheless it was an awesome experience. I can go

on and on!

What was the best advice a UNIS teacher gave you?

The Director Mr. Graham Cherry had advised me to look at

Banking/ Financial Services as a career. Which I pursued and

now I am a Banker and a Banking consultant. He laid the

foundation for my career path. I think that advise had really

given me an insight as to what I wanted to do in life.

How did you get to school every morning?

I took the school bus every morning.

How did you and your friends spend your free time?

1. We had formed a band and we were practicing from one of

the UNIS classrooms. Here we tried composing some songs

but never reached a point in releasing a song or an album.

2. We used to play lot of Tennis and participated in tennis

tournaments held by the Swedish Embassy, the French

Embassy and some local authorities. So this used to be

another meeting place where we used to practice a lot of

Tennis.

3. As we were in 10th Grade and we were a bit older, we used

to visit discotheques, so this was another hangout place during

week ends.

Getting In Touch Project

Dear Bryony:

I am delighted to correspond with you about UNIS Hanoi.

My first impressions were about how difficult it was. I had

lived abroad in Beirut and Vienna for many years, but nothing

prepared me for the difficulties of Hanoi. Even though the

war had been over for many years, the city had not fully

recovered. There was widespread malnutrition and the

streetlights had just returned in the month before my arrival in

August 1988. One saw no elderly or heavy-set people on the

streets, and many were still being paid in rice.

As for UNIS Hanoi, we had four rooms in a recently built

Vietnamese high school where we had to completely renovate

the bathrooms. We had a generator, which I had to learn how

to use, as the electricity was sporadic.

We started with four students, and in two years had forty. We

took field trips with the Swedish and Finnish schools. They

also allowed us to teach swimming at their pools. We held

combined sporting events, and had many enjoyable times with

them.

I re-learned to ride a bicycle and rode all over the city, as there

was little traffic. Driving in Hanoi was very difficult, and we

used UNDP cars and trucks for everything.

I returned to Hanoi in 1998, for the 10th reunion to find much

had changed. The restaurants were safer, elevators worked,

and the streets were much cleaner. The school had made great

strides and I was very proud of it.

- Dr. Winner

What is your favourite memory/place in Hanoi?

There used to be International Centre. That used to be my

favorite hangout. The place had restaurants, swimming pool

and a tennis court.

Have you been back to Hanoi since you left?

No, I will soon visit Hanoi and drop by to UNIS.

ES Art Show

Grade 1 Students Take Actions

From one person’s thought, the idea became infectious and soon during lunch and recess an army of Grade 1 students were

busily creating art and adding colour to our 4 square court playground. When asked about their busy activity they replied:

“I want all the new students to feel welcome and happy,” explained Socorro who initiated the idea

“I just wanted to make our school look more beautiful,” said Diana

“I want to make our school

look new and beautiful. We

need more rainbow colours in

our school,” Ella shared

“Experts” and ideas needed for 5th Grade Exhibition!

The Exhibition is an exciting time for 5th graders and many people have been asking how they can help out. In order to

make this a meaningful and authentic inquiry, students are encouraged to interview ‘experts’ and people with first-hand

experience in their area of interest. They are also encouraged to go on a field trip and seek information in the

community. We know that Hanoi is rich with resources, but we are not really sure of all the gold that may be beneath our

feet. Hopefully, you can help us identify it!

After reviewing the topics below, we would appreciate any help or direction in the following areas:

Interview with an expert: Do you have a contact in this field that you can get us in touch with?

Interview with an experienced person: Do you know a person in the community who is personally affected by this

topic?

Organizations: Do you know of an organization that is currently working within this field?

Field Trip idea: Do you know a place they can go to get more information?

It really does ‘take a village’ to make The Exhibition successful! Please email Jenny Hedrick (jhedrick@unishanoi.org) with

ideas. All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Grade 8 Friday field trip

In grade eight Humanities, the students are currently working on a unit about

Vietnamese culture and history. Our guiding question for the unit is “What is

unique about Vietnamese culture?” and on Friday the students went on a field

trip to experience and discover Hanoi first hand to add to their understanding of

this topic. We broke into two groups and alternated morning and afternoon

activities in which we visited the Hanoi Cooking Center and the Museum of

Ethnology. At the museum, students examined a range of artifacts from various

ethnic groups in Vietnam and explored communal structures. The visit to the

Hanoi Cooking Center was full of excitement as students went on a market tour,

played a tasting game, sampled different food, and made two different dishes to

enjoy. The day went really well, both the students and teachers enjoying the

activites!

Kelsey Giroux, MSHS Humanities Teacher kgiroux@unishanoi.org

Grade 10 Personal Project

The Grade 10 Personal Project Exhibition was a wonderful event this Thursday evening. The foyer

was filled with joy, cheer and pride. Every 10th Grader was happy to share with their families and

friends their projects that they had been working very hard on all year.

And those who visited the exhibition were even more happy to see the quality and range this year.

“One of the main reasons why we do this Personal Project in Grade 10 at IB schools is so that we can learn more

about a topic we enjoy, but more importantly to learn about ourselves “ - Vera Woerner

Congratulations to our Grade 10 students!

CHILDRENS’S ORAL HEALTH

Tooth decay (dental caries) affects children in the United States

more than any other chronic infectious disease. Children living

in Hanoi are not immune to tooth decay and left untreated will

cause pain and infections that may lead to problems; such as

eating, speaking, playing and learning.

The good news is that tooth decay and other oral diseases that

can affect children are preventable. The combination of dental

sealants and fluoride has the potential to nearly eliminate tooth

decay in school age children. As drinking tap water is not safe

in Vietnam and it is unclear if bottled water in Vietnam has

Fluoride, it is best to consult with your dentist regarding the use

of fluoride.

What can parents and caregivers do?

Here are some things you can do to ensure good oral health for your child:

Encourage your children to eat regular nutritious meals and avoid frequent between-meal snacking.

Protect your child’s teeth with fluoride.

Use fluoride toothpaste. If your child is less than seven years old, put only a pea-sized amount on their

toothbrush.

If your drinking water is not fluoridated (contains fluoride), talk to the dentist or physician about the best way

to protect your child’s teeth.

If you are pregnant, get prenatal care and eat a healthy diet. The diet should include folic acid to prevent birth

defects of the brain and spinal cord and possibly cleft lip/palate.

TOOTH BRUSHING:

Regular tooth brushing and flossing help protect your teeth from decay and gum disease.

To remove dental plaque, teeth should be brushed at least twice a day (in the morning, after

breakfast and just before bed). Use a soft bristled toothbrush with a small head and fluoride

toothpaste.

Tooth brushes (or brush heads on electric tooth brushes) should be replaced every 3 months and/

or when bristles appear worn and shaggy.

FLOSSING:

Floss your teeth once a day, prior to brushing. When flossing, take care not to damage your gums.

Flossing may be difficult at first, however, with practice, becomes easy. If you are unsure which type of dental floss to use,

consult with your dental professional.

On the weekend of March 9-10 UNIS Hanoi hosted the 2nd Annual Phoenix Cup High School Soccer Tournament. This 11

-aside tournament was a “warm-up” preparation event for the two UNIS teams that will be competing in season-ending

APAC tournaments in April. The event involved eight teams playing in two divisions.

On the boys side, the host UNIS Hanoi team was joined by Hanoi International School (HIS), Singapore International

School (SIS) and Tran Quoc Tuan (TQT). It’s always a challenge to find girls soccer teams to play against in Hanoi,

especially for an 11-aside tournament. In order to overcome this obstacle, the girls from UNIS Hanoi was joined by two

middle school aged boys teams and the HIS girls. One of the boys teams was from UNIS Hanoi, coached by Maurice

Humphries, and the other was from Lomonoxop School. The boys provided some very competitive games for the girls and

UNIS Hanoi would like to thank them both for stepping in to help make the weekend a success!

As things turned out, UNIS Hanoi teams faired very well, with the host school collecting three of the four trophies that were

up for grabs! Congratulations to the UNIS APAC Boys, coached by Andy Dutton and Susan Kraetzer, who went undefeated

through the tournament, beating TQT 1-0 in a close encounter to determine the championship. The UNIS APAC Girls, led

by Alan Hough and Phi Nguyen, also managed to reach the championship final, but they came up against a strong UNIS

Hanoi MS Boys team and were defeated 3-0 in the deciding match.

Final Standings:

The APAC Boys will be traveling to Beijing, China for their APAC Tournament. The Girls APAC Soccer Tournament will

be held here at UNIS on April 18-20. We hope you’ll find time to come out to support “The Phoenix” as we proudly host

our first APAC sporting event! We are still looking for host families for that tournament, so please contact the Activities

Office if you can assist with housing.

Good Luck to both of our APAC Soccer teams!!

UNIS Hanoi is also hosting the MRISA Senior Soccer Tournament on April 5-6, so that’ll be another great event where

the UNIS community can get involved by cheering for the home team. If you’re a soccer fan, April is the month for you!!
