An Event of Connection and Unity
The afternoon of VAS Hanoi Family Day was a vibrant portrait of love and sharing among family members. Each activity and game was not merely a competition but an opportunity for families to understand each other better, for children to feel the care and attentiveness from their parents, and for everyone to truly appreciate the value of family bonds.

When the whole family participated in tug-of-war, land boat racing, or joined in collective dancing, the atmosphere became more vibrant and cheerful than ever. The cheers of encouragement, the supportive glances when someone hesitated, and the shared smiles after overcoming challenges—all came together to create a memorable family day. In that space, there were no winners or losers, only valuable lessons of sharing, love, and the inseparable bonds between family members.

Mini Concert "Family Is Number One" – Cherished Moments of Love
As night fell, the Mini Concert "Family Is Number One" brought an emotional climax to the day. Each performance was a small story about love and family connection. Most notably, the participation of parents on stage alongside their children created warm, intimate, and meaningful moments, highlighting the essence of family togetherness.

The sudden rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of the families. Under the light drizzle, the sound of clapping and cheering continued to echo, making the atmosphere even more lively. These moments not only brought joy but also reaffirmed that family is always the strongest foundation for every child, no matter what challenges life may bring.

Igniting the Flame of Love and Unity
The most sacred moment of the Family Day was when the campfire was lit. This flame not only symbolized warmth but also represented love, sharing, and the enduring spirit of unity between the family, school, and students. Under the flickering light, all distances seemed to fade away. Teachers, parents, and students held hands, joined together in a circle of solidarity, and sang joyful tunes, full of emotion.

"The journey of connection between VAS Hanoi, families, and students is always illuminated by companionship and understanding – like a flame that keeps every heart warm. I believe that when we nurture together, this light will always shine, guiding the happiness of each family. The school will always be a solid bridge, walking hand-in-hand with parents on the path of educating and shaping character for our children. And the flame that I will light today will symbolize the strong bond between the school, the family, and our children – a flame of love, trust, and hope, that will forever burn brightly in every heart," shared Ms. Quách Minh Hương, Principal of VAS Hanoi Primary School, just before the fire-lighting ceremony.

The bright flame also carries a powerful message that VAS Hanoi wishes to convey: the journey of each student's growth is inseparable from the support of both family and school. Every family is a vital bridge, helping students take stronger steps on the path of learning and development.

"Family is number one" is not just a reminder of the crucial role of family in education, but also a tribute to the fathers and mothers who accompany their children throughout their educational journey. VAS Hanoi believes that family is the solid foundation that allows each student to grow holistically, both intellectually and morally. The Family Day is an opportunity for all family members to express love, share, and walk alongside their children.

Ms. Lại Thị Kim Chinh, a parent of a third-grade student, shared: "Family Day gave us wonderful moments that we don't always get to experience. I am so grateful to VAS Hanoi for organizing such a meaningful event, which brought our family closer together. Each game, each performance helped us understand each other better, and I feel so proud when I see my child happy."

The Family Day 2025 has left a profound impact on everyone who participated. The school would like to express heartfelt thanks to the teachers, parents, and students for coming together to create such a memorable event. We look forward to seeing you all in the upcoming events at VAS Hanoi!
