Dear Parents, 
The MP3 performance of ‘Jungle Book’, on Wednesday evening, provided a wonderful end to 
Term 2! I must once again thank all those involved, especially the MP3 teachers and teaching 
assistants, for producing such a very professional, lively and colourful production. The super 
costumes and make up along with the jungle setting were amazing however it was our talented 
children who deserve the biggest applause. Year 5 and 6 you are all super stars - Well Done! 
Other exciting events this week included many exit points from IPC topics. The teddy bear’s 
picnic for the Foundation Stage children and the trip to the rock climbing wall for Year 4 were 
two such events. Year 3 also created a dinosaur museum here at TX today. I learned lots of 
information as I was escorted around the museum and was impressed by the children’s 
knowledge. 
I wish you all an enjoyable holiday whether you are relaxing in Ho Chi Minh City or venturing 
further a field. Term 3 starts on Monday 9th April and I look forward to welcoming you all 
back at the normal time, 7:55am.

Term 3 will start on Monday 9th April. Happy holiday to all of you. 
DVDs for sale: 
The Jungle Book DVD has arrived and copies are selling very 
quickly. Please see Ms. Emma with 100,000VND if you would 
like to purchase one. 
Easter Bonnet Parade 
We are reviving an old tradition from the UK 
on 11th April. All EYFS children will be asked 
to decorate a hat with springtime motifs and 
flowers. Then, they will all take part in an 
Easter Bonnet Parade wearing their special 
creations. Spring Time is traditionally a time 
when people bought new clothes and made a 
new start. I can’t wait to see your imaginative design.
Climbing Wall 
School Event 
Today, 4X became real life adventurers for their IPC exit point. We had a phenomenal time at the X-Rock 
climbing wall where we pretended to be mountaineers climbing Mount Everest! Some of us persevered and made 
it all the way to the peak. We all had a fun time and wish we could do it again tomorrow!

“The Jungle Book” Performance 
On Wednesday all the children and parents at TX watched the Mile Post 3 production of ‘The Jungle Book’ based on the 
story by Rudyard Kipling. Year 5 and 6 produced an amazing extravaganza to finish term 2. The show was complete with 
singing elephants, wolves and cheeky monkeys. 
Well done Mile Post 3! 
DVD’s of the show are available early Friday morning in the foyer for 100,000 VD.

Teddy Bears’ Picnic 
School Event 
On Thursday the EYFS children went to BVIS in District 7 and we invited our favourite teddy bears to attend our teddy 
bears’ picnic. 
At the BVIS school field, Mr Euan greeted the children and their bears and we all sang the ‘Hello’ song. 
Then the children played in a variety of activities including building in construction, play dough, ball games, parachute 
games and Mr Euan taught us how to make origami bear faces. 
We stopped to have snack with our bears; after all the activities we were very hungry. After snack time we were able to use 
the soft play room at BVIS and also play outside again. 
During the morning, groups of children from EYFS at BVIS came to join us. It was fantastic for all the TX children to mix 
and play together and also to play with children from BVIS school. 
Finally Mr Euan helped us to sing the ‘Good Bye’ song to finish the morning. All the teachers, children and teddy bears had 
a fun filled morning at our teddy bears’ picnic.

Chân thành cảm ơn quý vị phụ huynh đã sử dụng hệ thống CHQ trong vài tuần qua. Đó là một thành công rất lớn và hiện tại

THE NEW BIS WEBSITE - www.bisvietnam.com 
We are very pleased and excited to announce that on Tuesday 20th March 2012, the new BIS website will go 
live. Extensive work has gone into designing a modern, relevant and user friendly version to represent our 
school. Whilst maintaining the integrity of information that is on our current site, we have added in several more 
pages to complement the existing information. Aside from the range of new professional photos that are 
showcased, we have added in some interesting features including a ‘Virtual Tour’ of all three campuses and an 
infographic ‘BIS At A Glance’, which provides a visual overview of both the history of the school and an 
insight into what BIS is today. All Login’s can now be accessed from the Home Page. We encourage you the 
parents and our students to take the time to visit and explore the new BIS website.

The importance of the ‘mother tongue’ 
"Your children will learn English much more effectively if they 
continue to develop their first language at the same time." 
Dear Parents, 
So far this year we have been having great success in EAL with helping children improve 
their language. We have seen every one of our students make good progress and achieve at 
least some of their targets. 
Another thing we have found throughout this year is that children who have a stronger 
foundation in their home language often show greater and more consistent improvement than others. This is something 
we have researched and we are pleased to announce that there will be a special coffee morning for parents on this subject 
sometime soon in the next term. 
This is an important issue not just for students being supported by EAL but for all bilingual children. There are many 
reasons why children need to have a strong understanding in their home language, whether they are Vietnamese, Korean, 
Japanese, or from any other culture. 
Please remember to talk as much as possible with your child in their home language, asking lots of ‘why’ and ‘how’ 
comprehension questions whenever you can. We look forward to seeing you next term. Enjoy your holidays (and don’t 
forget to check out the EAL Studywiz page in the meantime)! 
The EAL Department.

Tầm quan trọng của ‘tiếng mẹ đẻ’ 
"Con của bạn sẽ học tiếng Anh hiệu quả hơn rất nhiều nếu trẻ vẫn tiếp tục phát triển 
ngôn ngữ đầu tiên của mình cùng lúc.” 
Quý Phụ Huynh thân mến, 
Cho đến nay chúng tôi đã đạt được nhiều thành công trong việc hỗ trợ trẻ EAL cải thiện vốn tiếng Anh của mình. 
Chúng tôi nhận thấy mỗi em đều gặt hái nhiều tiến bộ và đạt được một số mục tiêu đề ra. 
Một điều nữa mà chúng tôi thấy được trong năm học này chính là những trẻ có nền tảng ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ tốt 
hơn thường thể hiện sự tiến bộ rõ rệt và vững chắc hơn các trẻ khác. Đây là điều chúng tôi đã nghiên cứu và 
rất hân hạnh được thông báo rằng sẽ có một buổi trình bày đặc biệt cho quý Phụ Huynh về chủ đề này vào 
học kỳ tới. 
Đây là một vấn đề quan trọng không chỉ dành cho trẻ được hỗ trợ tiếng Anh trong bộ phận EAL mà còn cho tất 
cả các trẻ em sử dụng song ngữ. Có nhiều lý do vì sao trẻ phải cần sự hiểu biết vững chắc ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ 
cho dù là trẻ em Việt Nam, Hàn Quốc, Nhật Bản, hay đến từ bất cứ nền văn hoá nào. 
Hãy nhớ dành thời trò chuyện càng nhiều càng tốt với con của bạn bằng tiếng mẹ đẻ, hỏi thật nhiều các câu 
hỏi kiểm tra sự hiểu như ‘tại sao’ và ‘như thế nào’ bất cứ khi nào bạn có thể. Chúng tôi rất mong được gặp quý 
Phụ Huynh ở học kỳ sau. Chúc quý Phụ Huynh một kỳ nghỉ nhiều niềm vui (và đừng quên vào kiểm tra trang EAL 
Studywiz)! 
Bộ phận EAL

  • 1. 23.03.12 Volume 2 |Issue 10 Upcoming Page 1 From Ms. Sue Hill - Head of Campus 23rd - 25th March Fobissea Music Carnival 23rd March Term 2 finishes 9th April Term 3 begins 11th April EYFS Easter Bonnet Parade 20th April Swim gala (Yr 2 - Yr 6) Contact information 43-45 Tu Xuong Street, Ward 7, District 3, HCMC Tel: (84 8) 39320210 Fax: (84 8) 39320770 Email: tuxuong@bisvietnam.com Dear Parents, The MP3 performance of ‘Jungle Book’, on Wednesday evening, provided a wonderful end to Term 2! I must once again thank all those involved, especially the MP3 teachers and teaching assistants, for producing such a very professional, lively and colourful production. The super costumes and make up along with the jungle setting were amazing however it was our talented children who deserve the biggest applause. Year 5 and 6 you are all super stars - Well Done! Other exciting events this week included many exit points from IPC topics. The teddy bear’s picnic for the Foundation Stage children and the trip to the rock climbing wall for Year 4 were two such events. Year 3 also created a dinosaur museum here at TX today. I learned lots of information as I was escorted around the museum and was impressed by the children’s knowledge. I wish you all an enjoyable holiday whether you are relaxing in Ho Chi Minh City or venturing further a field. Term 3 starts on Monday 9th April and I look forward to welcoming you all back at the normal time, 7:55am.
  • 2. Parents’ corner Page 2 Term 3 starts Term 3 will start on Monday 9th April. Happy holiday to all of you. DVDs for sale: The Jungle Book DVD has arrived and copies are selling very quickly. Please see Ms. Emma with 100,000VND if you would like to purchase one. Easter Bonnet Parade We are reviving an old tradition from the UK on 11th April. All EYFS children will be asked to decorate a hat with springtime motifs and flowers. Then, they will all take part in an Easter Bonnet Parade wearing their special creations. Spring Time is traditionally a time when people bought new clothes and made a new start. I can’t wait to see your imaginative design.
  • 3. Climbing Wall School Event Today, 4X became real life adventurers for their IPC exit point. We had a phenomenal time at the X-Rock climbing wall where we pretended to be mountaineers climbing Mount Everest! Some of us persevered and made it all the way to the peak. We all had a fun time and wish we could do it again tomorrow! By 4X Page 3
  • 4. School Event “The Jungle Book” Performance On Wednesday all the children and parents at TX watched the Mile Post 3 production of ‘The Jungle Book’ based on the story by Rudyard Kipling. Year 5 and 6 produced an amazing extravaganza to finish term 2. The show was complete with singing elephants, wolves and cheeky monkeys. Well done Mile Post 3! DVD’s of the show are available early Friday morning in the foyer for 100,000 VD. Ms Liz – Mile Post Three Leader Page 4
  • 5. Teddy Bears’ Picnic School Event On Thursday the EYFS children went to BVIS in District 7 and we invited our favourite teddy bears to attend our teddy bears’ picnic. At the BVIS school field, Mr Euan greeted the children and their bears and we all sang the ‘Hello’ song. Then the children played in a variety of activities including building in construction, play dough, ball games, parachute games and Mr Euan taught us how to make origami bear faces. We stopped to have snack with our bears; after all the activities we were very hungry. After snack time we were able to use the soft play room at BVIS and also play outside again. During the morning, groups of children from EYFS at BVIS came to join us. It was fantastic for all the TX children to mix and play together and also to play with children from BVIS school. Finally Mr Euan helped us to sing the ‘Good Bye’ song to finish the morning. All the teachers, children and teddy bears had a fun filled morning at our teddy bears’ picnic. Ms. Helen Page 5

Nếu quý phụ huynh không thấy được câu lạc bộ mà quý vị đã đăng ký, điều đó có nghĩa câu lạc bộ đó đã hết chỗ hoặc con bạn đã có câu lạc bộ khác vào ngày hôm đó.

  • 8. EAL Department The importance of the ‘mother tongue’ "Your children will learn English much more effectively if they continue to develop their first language at the same time." Dear Parents, So far this year we have been having great success in EAL with helping children improve their language. We have seen every one of our students make good progress and achieve at least some of their targets. Another thing we have found throughout this year is that children who have a stronger foundation in their home language often show greater and more consistent improvement than others. This is something we have researched and we are pleased to announce that there will be a special coffee morning for parents on this subject sometime soon in the next term. This is an important issue not just for students being supported by EAL but for all bilingual children. There are many reasons why children need to have a strong understanding in their home language, whether they are Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, or from any other culture. Please remember to talk as much as possible with your child in their home language, asking lots of ‘why’ and ‘how’ comprehension questions whenever you can. We look forward to seeing you next term. Enjoy your holidays (and don’t forget to check out the EAL Studywiz page in the meantime)! The EAL Department. Page 8 Tầm quan trọng của ‘tiếng mẹ đẻ’ "Con của bạn sẽ học tiếng Anh hiệu quả hơn rất nhiều nếu trẻ vẫn tiếp tục phát triển ngôn ngữ đầu tiên của mình cùng lúc.” Quý Phụ Huynh thân mến, Cho đến nay chúng tôi đã đạt được nhiều thành công trong việc hỗ trợ trẻ EAL cải thiện vốn tiếng Anh của mình. Chúng tôi nhận thấy mỗi em đều gặt hái nhiều tiến bộ và đạt được một số mục tiêu đề ra. Một điều nữa mà chúng tôi thấy được trong năm học này chính là những trẻ có nền tảng ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ tốt hơn thường thể hiện sự tiến bộ rõ rệt và vững chắc hơn các trẻ khác. Đây là điều chúng tôi đã nghiên cứu và rất hân hạnh được thông báo rằng sẽ có một buổi trình bày đặc biệt cho quý Phụ Huynh về chủ đề này vào học kỳ tới. Đây là một vấn đề quan trọng không chỉ dành cho trẻ được hỗ trợ tiếng Anh trong bộ phận EAL mà còn cho tất cả các trẻ em sử dụng song ngữ. Có nhiều lý do vì sao trẻ phải cần sự hiểu biết vững chắc ngôn ngữ mẹ đẻ cho dù là trẻ em Việt Nam, Hàn Quốc, Nhật Bản, hay đến từ bất cứ nền văn hoá nào. Hãy nhớ dành thời trò chuyện càng nhiều càng tốt với con của bạn bằng tiếng mẹ đẻ, hỏi thật nhiều các câu hỏi kiểm tra sự hiểu như ‘tại sao’ và ‘như thế nào’ bất cứ khi nào bạn có thể. Chúng tôi rất mong được gặp quý Phụ Huynh ở học kỳ sau. Chúc quý Phụ Huynh một kỳ nghỉ nhiều niềm vui (và đừng quên vào kiểm tra trang EAL Studywiz)! Bộ phận EAL
