The Westwood Secondary School delegation (Singapore) connected with students from UTS South American International School and Van Lang University’s Honors Program.

In her opening remarks, Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Lan - President of UTS South American International School - highlighted: “This is a meaningful opportunity for students from both institutions to connect, establish friendships, and explore the distinct cultures of Vietnam and Singapore. Sports transcend mere competition - they embody teamwork, cooperation, the exchange of experiences, and the formation of enduring international relationships.”
