We are on cloud nine to receive the news that Trinh Hai Duong (10 Physics 1) and Pham Vu Quy (11 Math 2) won Gold and Silver in the categories of high school Women’s and Men’s standard chess. With the resilience of an Amser, Hai Duong and Vu Quy shined with their own honorable medal!

Not only at the high school level, this year's Chess category also yielded a prestigious Gold Medal by Nguyen Minh Dan (student of 6C) in the women’s standard chess competition for junior high school. That is a very worthy victory for her efforts despite being so young.

Coming to the final competition, the “Dragon Warriors” ended this year's glorious journey with two Silver Medals in two categories: High School Girls' and Boys' basketball. Both matches took place at the “battleground” of Thanh Tri stadium, though there were regrets but also pride from the players and fans.

The Hanoi Student Sports Tournament is not only an arena where students can learn, but also a place for students to express their youthful passion and enthusiasm during their precious adolescence. With the achievements today, we hope Amsers will always keep their spirit, practice diligently, and continue to bring glory to our school!
