Annually, the Vinschool Education System holds Vincamp to create chance for Vinsers to show their own abilities in leading change. With the topic of Vincamp 2018 “Leading change, sharing love”, the most excellent students will be granted scholarship which covers all the expenses to join the Young Leaders Camp in Australia.

I. INTRODUCTION

The mission of Vinschool is to educate students to become responsible and ambitious citizens with enough personalities and capacities to live happily, successfully as well as strive for national development and global integration. Therefore, we always encourage our students to drive their thoughts and take actions toward their friends, their loved ones and their society in general. At school, students learn and seek for solutions to solve life’s challenges and difficulties. In the society, they spend at least 2-4 hours per year to do community service projects. These activities motivate students to spread the positive things and to contribute their best not only to their families but also to the social development.

Sharing the same spirit, annually, Vinschool Education System holds Vincamp to create chances for Vinsers to show their own abilities in leading change. Vincamp 2016 was held in the United States, and the Vincamp 2017 was held in the United Kingdom.

In 2018, the most excellent students will be granted scholarships which covers all the expense to join the Young Leaders Camp in Australia. We would like to providesome detailed information about the Vincamp 2018 for parents and students as below:
