On Monday 11th June we were delighted to share with the local community the hard work of 4 year 13 BIS HCMC artists who have recently completed their International Baccalaureate Visual Arts course.
Held at Soma Art Cafe in Thao Dien we exhibited the work of 4 students; Vivi Nguyen, Nguyet Vo, Chi Han Bui and Thanh Le. Over the course of their IBDP each artist has created a body of work which expresses who they are and what they think about the world around them.
The IB Diploma Programme Visual Arts course encourages our students to challenge their own creative and cultural expectations and boundaries. It is a thought-provoking course in which students develop analytical skills in problem-solving and divergent thinking, while working towards technical proficiency and confidence as artmakers.
It was a wonderful evening for our community, celebrating the final chapter for our Year 13 IBVA students. - Nicola Tingey, Art Teacher
Many local art enthusiasts, colleagues, friends and family came along to see the expressive and meaningful work and to listen to stories of our students' journey through the 2 year IBVA process.
Everyone was truly impressed with the quality of the work and the eloquence with which the students spoke about it. We could not have put this show together without the time and enthusiasm of Mr Adam Astley, the support of our fabulous maintenance team and the generosity of Linh at Soma Art Cafe for providing the space.
Thank you to everyone for supporting this exhibition and I’m sure you will join me in wishing these 4 artists the very best with the next phase of their education.
Ms Nicola Tingey, Art Teacher
We are thrilled that four of our Year 13 students have recently gained offers from ‘Elite’ USA universities.
At BIS HCMC, leadership is more than just a title — it’s about inspiring others, fostering a sense of community, and embracing personal growth. This year’s Head Students, in Year 13, — Atom, JaeYeon, Tim, and Serena — embody these values with authenticity and dedication, each bringing their unique strengths, creativity, and passion to their roles.
We are thrilled to announce that a record three students from the BIS HCMC Class of 2025 have received offers from the University of Oxford, ranked number 3 in the world, and the University of Cambridge, ranked number 5 in the world. A huge congratulations to Quynh An, YeongSeo (Judy) and JaeYeon on their extraordinary achievement that sets a new benchmark for BIS students.
These achievements come as BIS students begin to secure outstanding offers from top universities around the world, including USA, UK, Australia and Asia and these numbers will only continue to rise as more decisions will be made over the coming weeks.
