KUMON EIC 5th Overseas Study Tour (OST)

***Announcement***
Due to the current situation of the Covid-19,
we have regrettably decided to cancel the operation of this year’s Overseas Study Tour in Vietnam.

However, we still found a way to connect with the participants and gave them an interesting opportunity to interact with our Vietnamese Camp Leaders. On March 29th, we gathered for an hour and a half online to play some games in Vietnamese and learned more about Vietnam through the Camp Leaders’ fun quizzes! We learned about the Mid-Autumn festival with beautiful lanterns and delicious Moon Cakes, as well as the interesting reason why many Vietnamese people look like “ninjas” when they ride their motorbikes. Do you want to guess why?

Can you guess the reason why these are called
“Moon Cakes”?

Why do Vietnamese people wear suits like these
when they go out?

Through this online opportunity, many have exclaimed how fun it is and they want to have more activities like this. Wait no more!
