BIS is teaming up with Rethink Plastic Vietnam for the November Plastic Awareness Month. Are you up for the Challenge???
Single-use plastics are a big threat to our health, our environment and to the world. So we all have to join hands to reduce the use of these plastics, especially if we're to reach our target of eliminating single-use plastic from BIS campuses in 2020!
Rethink Plastic Vietnam has created an online competition which will give participants an insight into their current use of single-use plastic and encourage each and every one of us to make easy, but very important, steps towards reduction and positive behavioural change.
The Plastic Diet Challenge starts with a ‘baseline’ survey and will be followed by 3 weekly surveys and “tips & tricks” over the course of the month of November. Your task is to try to reduce the amount of single-use plastic you use each week.
When the Plastic Diet Challenge is completed, we will announce the winners and we can find out which BIS House is our biggest reducer!
So are you up for the challenge???

Sincerely,
The ReThink Plastic Vietnam Team
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.
Joining BIS HCMC in Foundation Stage 2 (F2) is a fantastic age to begin a lifetime love for learning, encouraged and nurtured by our experienced and committed class and specialist teachers, who personalise learning unique to every child. We look back at what our F2s have experienced in less than one term already at BIS HCMC.
