We are in the early stages of creating a new school film which will be a central part of the new website, helping UNIS Hanoi showcase its unique story to the outside world, and helping provide a rich and inspiring introduction to the school for potential new families and faculty.

And we are looking for stories and storytellers from our community!

We will be using the newly approved School Values and Beliefs to structure the film around Learning, Responsibility and Community.

Our goal is for someone to watch the film and take away powerful stories told by our community demonstrating our most deeply held Values and Beliefs… and a desire to know more about us!

We believe the most powerful way to showcase the School and “Learning to Inspire” at UNIS Hanoi, is to illustrate these three Values in action with true stories, told by our community, for our community – nine stories, one for each of the Beliefs.

This is where you come in…

We are currently ‘harvesting’ story ideas from our community of students, faculty, staff, parents and alumni linked to our Values and Beliefs.

When you read the Values and Beliefs statements can you find something in your experience at UNIS Hanoi that creates a special connection for you that you can share?

• It could be a special moment, or a long lasting experience, a special event or the daily rhythm of the School.
• It might be the impact of a programme that we have introduced, or a trip or Service activity that impacted you profoundly.
• It might be seeing a child transform, or helping others to grow and fulfil their potential through their time at UNIS.
• It might be a student or a staff member that has especially demonstrated these values in their life, alone or working with others… we would like to hear from everyone!

Email Emma Silva, our Director of Advancement (doa@unishanoi.org) giving us a brief outline of your story and how it connects to ONE of the Values and ONE of the Belief statements.

Once we have harvested the ideas for our stories and storytellers from the community we will be in touch to find out more, and then we will work with a professional film maker to make the selected nine stories come alive!

We look forward to hearing from you by the end of next week (Friday March 7).

THANK YOU!
