How are you doing? We hopre you are doing great!
In June, we took the girls in our program to Jump Arena - The largest trampoline amusement park in Vietnam. At the end of this school year, our girls also had a great time at Dam Sen Water Park. Relaxing and spending time together is always what we do to heal after a hardworking school year.
One month ago, we had a trip to Madagui eco-tourism to mingle with nature and enjoy the endless summer for three days. This is the fouth consecutive year we organize the trip, which aims to give the children opportunities to extend learning outside classrooms, to get away from technology and step outside of their usual routine; more importantly, they will become an more independent and responsible young person when traveling without their parents or tutors.
Madagui is an ecological area of Cat Tien National Park, one of the six largest biosphere reserves in the world. We had many meaningful activities such as camping, participating in team-building games, visiting caves and vegetation. We believe that this activity helps children learn how to share, live in a group as well as spread awareness about protecting forests and the environment for children growing up in the city.
The celebration of the new school year takes place in August every year. During this occasion all of the girls and their parents are invited to participate in interactive activities designed to connect the participants.
Setting girl children up for success by supplying their education is the main goal of the Where Dreams Bloom project. We would like to extend our gratitude to GeoComply, who provided us a perfect accommodation for our activity and donated school supplies for our girls.
Last but not least, we would like to send you our great news that Thu Tram, our program intern already successfully completed the 2-month internship period. It’s a great pleasure for us to have contributed to her professional growth. Also, we send our thanks to her for all of the efforts and energy she has brought to work everyday.
The ongoing involvement of youth in the roles of collaborators, volunteers or interns in the program not only bring a source of positive energy to the girls but also become role models for in gaining more independence and taking their first steps towards their future as an adult.
As we go forward, we’ll be sure to keep you updated and know that we always value your questions, ideas and feedback. Please send us email via: vnaction@allianceantitrafic.org if you have any questions about our program.
We are always grateful for your support!
Best regards,
AAT Vietnam
