On 6th December, at Hồ Xuân Hương Stadium (Ho Chi Minh City), Anne Hill International School (AHI), under the Anne Hill Education Group (AHEG), proudly hosted the AnneHillversary School Concert – “Celebrating a Colourful Decade”. This landmark event marked 10 years of international education at AHI, reflecting the school’s continuous growth, resilience, and long-term commitment to nurturing confident, compassionate, and globally minded learners.
As one of the most anticipated school events of the year, the anniversary concert brought together nearly 1,600 members, including students, parents, teachers, school leaders, and long-standing members of the AHI community. Through a dynamic combination of music, dance, and storytelling, the school concert vividly portrayed AHI’s journey over the past decade, which is shaped by learning, perseverance, and strong partnerships.
10 Years of Growth Through Performance
The 10-year anniversary concert was thoughtfully designed to reflect key milestones in Anne Hill International School’s development. Each performance represented a stage in the school’s journey, highlighting the values that define AHI: holistic learning, creativity, confidence, collaboration, and global citizenship. Throughout the concert, it was easy to sense parents’ excitement and pride as they watched their children shine on stage, many for the very first time. We invite you to revisit its most memorable highlights through the video below.
Community at the Heart of Anne Hill
Beyond the performances, the concert highlighted the strong sense of connection between families and the school, which is an essential part of the AHI community. This spirit of trust and collaboration was strongly reflected in the perspectives of the school’s leadership. Ms. Anne Hill, Co-Founder of AHEG, stated that: “The unwavering trust and companionship of families and educators have been the true foundation of the school’s success, describing the past ten years as a journey built on genuine collaboration and mutual respect.”
Reinforcing this shared spirit, Mr. Abraham Elias, Executive Director of Anne Hill Education Group, underscored the importance of sustained collaboration between the school and its wider community. He emphasised that Anne Hill’s growth has always been guided by a clear, humble vision and a strong belief in partnership as the foundation of a thriving school community. As he shared, “We are committed to our humble vision and to building a good school. Keep engaging us to make this a school of choice for our parents, students, and many others.”
Most significantly, this close partnership is deeply felt and proudly expressed by families within the AHI community. Sharing her perspective during and after the concert, Ms. Julia Doan, a parent with children studying at Anne Hill Education Group, appreciated the importance of committed and visionary school leadership in building a strong educational environment. Recognising the dedication of Ms. Anne Hill and the school team over the past decade, she added, “Compared to ten years ago, Anne Hill today has grown significantly—stronger and more developed.”
Introducing the AHI House System and School Mascot
Adding to the excitement of the evening, Mr. Sean O’Maonaigh, Head of School, shared an important announcement that sparked strong interest among students and the wider school community. Beginning in January, Anne Hill International School will officially introduce a House System, an initiative led by the Student Council to strengthen student voice, belonging, and school spirit.
The new House System will be based on four mythical creatures—Phoenix, Griffin, Pegasus, and Dragon—and will create opportunities for inter-house activities, collaboration, and friendly competitions throughout the school year. Alongside this, Mr. Sean also announced the upcoming launch of AHI’s first official school mascot: the Turtle. In a later phase, our students will be actively involved in shaping and creating the final mascot design to reinforce AHI’s commitment to student agency and creativity.
A Decade of Shaping Futures — and Beyond
The 10th AnneHillversary School Concert – “Celebrating a Colourful Decade” marked a significant milestone in Anne Hill International School’s journey, reflecting a decade shaped by purpose, community, and steady progress.
The success of the concert was made possible by the valued support of our sponsors and partners.
