To mark France’s National Day, the team at La Petite Ecole Hanoi was delighted to attend the event organized by the French Embassy in Hanoi. This warm and festive evening brought together many members of the Francophone community in Vietnam — including institutions, businesses, associations, and schools — in a spirit of conviviality and cultural exchange.

As a French school accredited by the AEFE, we were proud to take part in this symbolic occasion that celebrates the friendship between France and Vietnam, and highlights our shared commitment to values such as dialogue, cooperation, and cultural diversity.

The July 14th celebration was also a great opportunity to connect with other key players in the Francophone network in Hanoi, and to exchange ideas about education, projects, and the evolving role of the French language in an international context. For our teaching team, these encounters are invaluable — they strengthen our sense of belonging to a dynamic, open-minded community.

At La Petite Ecole Hanoi, we believe that quality education is built on care, active listening, and openness to the world. By taking part in this event, we reaffirm our commitment to promoting the French language and culture, while valuing and embracing the rich diversity that surrounds us every day.
