This is the first performance of an program by the children to promote Vietnamese culture in schools in New Zealand over two weeks.
Speaking at the opening of the program, Vietnamese Ambassador to New Zealand Nguyen Viet Dung said that this was a very good opportunity to promote Vietnamese culture through young talents, and it was also a chance for children of the Vietnamese community in New Zealand to follow. They not only try to study but also practice music, singing and dancing to maintain and promote the beauty of the Vietnamese culture in New Zealand.
After the performance at the embassy, the children will go to local people's homes and schools to exchange and perform art programs to help local students better understand the history, country, culture and people of Vietnam.
Through the exchange activities, they also learn about the country, people and culture of New Zealand, especially concerning experience in successfully preserving the indigenous culture.
This is the first cultural exchange program with the participation of talented Vietnamese children held by ICLS Vietnam International Education and Training Joint Stock Company and Freyberg High School, a large high school with 2,000 students in New Zealand's Palmerston region./.
