The program was rooted from the gratitude of the former students of Ha Noi – Amsterdam High School for the Gifted towards the ones who had taught them. Participating in the program were qualified doctors and specialists of their fields. Many of whom were former Amsers. Beside the medical service, we also recognized the contributions of the Amsers in advertisement, media or culinary sections.

Although the program officially started at 8 a.m. November 12^th, the member of the organizing team had been preparing the hall and the 200-seat auditorium for the event the whole day before with the hope of bringing the convenience to all the teachers. The team also prepared breakfast for the teachers.

This program did not only provide the teachers with the opportunity of getting medical service by professional doctors, but it also expressed the gratitude of generations of Ha Noi – Amsterdam’s students towards their guides. Along with that, the program also helped teachers and students reunite after a long time out of touch.

The program took place for almost a day, ending in the afternoon of November 12^th. The organization board held a small party to show their gratitude towards all who had contributed to the success of the program. We hope that in the future, not only the old generations of Amsers but also the new ones will follow the footsteps on the path of organizing such meaningful event.
