Santa Claus is coming to ... school!!

Santa makes his annual pilgrimage to ASYC in the form of sporting Mr Ngon. He goes round the classes ho-ho-hoing in Vietnamese, scaring some and delighting most. Mr Ngon sure makes a great Vietnamese Santa.

The hard work behind the scene - thank you, Ms Trang

Visit to Camillo Home for the Aged

Parents of ASYC and TAK have been very kind and generous in helping us raise funds for out Christmas Charity Project. Our target was 15,000,000vnd. We raised 40,000,000vnd. With this amount, we will be able to help 2 homes - one for Christmas, and one for Tet.

The photographs tell the story of our visit.
