Swimming is one of the most vital survival skills for all people of different ages. Every year, there are thousands of drowning cases, especially children, due to the fact that most of them do not know how to swim. Huynh Duc Tho, Chairman of Danang City People’s Committee, recently called for action for all Primary students and upwards in Danang City to learn how to swim. Implementing such an official call for action, Ngu Hanh Son District People’s Committee together with its Office of Education and Trainingon Friday, 10 June, held an event marking the Learn to Swim campaign in all public schools in the District at the well-equipped swimming pool at the Pegasus Mixed Education Development (Kinderworld Education Group, Singapore).
Being in operations since 2015, the 25-metre swimming pool is well constructed at a significant cost. It is well managed and cleaned daily. It offers a safe swimming venue for students from both Pegasus International College and the Singapore International School. The pool is a significant commitment by the Leaders of Pegasus in particular, and KinderWorld in general, to provide the most modern facilities for its students and building up the capabilities of its future global citizens.
At the Ceremony, Mr. Doan Ngoc Do, Vice President of Ngu Hanh Son District People’s Committee presented flowers and congratulated the success of Year 6 student at Singapore International School, Nguyen Trang Anh, who represented Danang at the “Phu Dong National Swimming competition” held in Thanh Hoa province this month. Trang Anh won Silver in the 100 Metre Freestyle with a time of 80 seconds and Gold in the Danang Relay team. Such high achievements once again show the high quality at Singapore International School, which does not only offer international academic quality but also extraordinary life skills training.
Singapore International School, the most renowned international school in Danang City, with its modern facilities has been accompanying with more public activities within the District, contributing to the improvement of the education and training quality for the whole city of Danang.
