CVCEC at Sunshine Maple Bear Hanoi: A Meaningful Lunar New Year Celebration
As the Lunar New Year draws near, it brings a profound sense of nostalgia, warmth, and love. For CVCEC, Tết is not only a time for family reunions but also a moment to reflect, express gratitude, and honor the rich cultural traditions of Vietnam.
This year, CVCEC was honored to take part in a series of Lunar New Year celebrations at schools in both Vietnam and Canada. In particular, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to Sunshine Maple Bear Hanoi for warmly welcoming us and creating a wonderful opportunity to engage with students, teachers, and parents in a meaningful and festive event.
Ms. Ngô Thu Hà, representing CVCEC, presented gifts and took a commemorative photo with the representatives of Sunshine Maple Bear Hanoi, marking a meaningful collaboration in celebrating the Lunar New Year.
A Journey of Cultural Connection and Celebration
The Lunar New Year event at Sunshine Maple Bear Hanoi created unforgettable moments, bringing together students, teachers, and parents to explore the traditions of Tết. From wrapping bánh chưng and practicing calligraphy to enjoying captivating cultural performances, the event was a beautiful celebration of heritage and togetherness.

— Minh Ngọc, Grade 4 Student
🌿 “It was amazing to witness students eagerly sharing stories about Tết and Vietnamese traditions. Through these cultural activities, I could truly feel the deep connection between generations, between the past and the present.”

Bringing the Spirit of Tết to the Global Community
Beyond Vietnam, CVCEC also brought the warmth of Tết to the Vietnamese student community in Canada, allowing those far from home to celebrate and cherish the traditions of their homeland. Through cultural exchange activities, we hope to help overseas Vietnamese feel the true essence of Tết, no matter where they are.
We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Ngô Thu Hà, Global Learning Officer at CVCEC, for her unwavering dedication and support in making this program a success.
As the Lunar New Year arrives, it brings with it the blooming peach blossoms, vibrant calligraphy scrolls, and the familiar taste of bánh chưng. No matter where we may be, may we all feel the warmth, love, and joy that Tết brings.
