Welcome to the launch of the 2019-20 Geography Photography Competition inspired by our collaboration with UNICEF. This year, we have connected the competition theme with the 30th Anniversary of the adoption on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
30 years ago, world leaders made a historic commitment to the world’s children by adopting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child – an international agreement on childhood.
It’s become the most widely ratified human rights treaty in history and has helped transform children’s lives around the world.
But still, not every child gets to enjoy a full childhood. Still, too many childhoods are cut short.
It is up to our generation to demand that leaders from government, business and communities fulfil their commitments and take action for child rights now, once and for all. They must commit to making sure every child, has every right.
Our friends at UNICEF are looking for great photographs that they can use to help people learn about the UNCRC, which means that there’s a chance your entry will be exhibited globally!
You should include approximately 50 words explaining why your photograph links to one (or more) aspects of the UNCRC.
All entries will receive a house point. Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each age section.
Winning entries from the whole of BIS HCMC will be chosen to represent the school in the NAE Global Campus Photographers of the Year 2019/2020 Competition.
We are thrilled that four of our Year 13 students have recently gained offers from ‘Elite’ USA universities.
At BIS HCMC, our Primary Expeditions are more than just school trips—they are life-changing expeditions that shape our students into confident, independent individuals. Earlier this month, our Year 4, 5, and 6 students embarked on thrilling journeys to Long Hai, Can Gio, and Cat Tien.
The BIS Community Rugby Co-Curricular Activity (CCA), in partnership with Rugby Cung Nhau (Rugby Together), is a powerful collaboration rooted in a shared vision: using sport as a tool to uplift and empower young people.
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.
