In the program "Calling Back Love" at IVS Thanh Oai facility, the appearance of poet Tran Dang Khoa brought a different "melodie". Not didactic, he told about his illiterate farmer mother who taught him to become a person with simple empathy.
The message that the "poetic prodigy" sent in the event is very clear: "Youth and youth are the most precious assets, don't spend them on virtual storms. Instead, nurture the future with learning and compassion".
The most touching moment of the program was 20 minutes of silence for the children to write handwritten letters to their mothers. Observing the boys who were originally stubborn and careless on the Vovinam martial arts training floor, now shaking their pens in tears, people can see the full power of gratitude.
Only a few letters can be read in time and these letters will not lie in the desk drawer, but will be sent by the school by mail directly to parents - a real-life gift that replaces all virtual values.
If in Thanh Oai there are moments of silence of the soul under the candlelight, then at the Bac Ninh facility, a new vitality explodes through the art music program called "Heartbeat". Not just simple entertainment performances, each melody sung here carries the mission of strongly inspiring about love for the homeland and the bond connecting families.
The proud melodies of "Volunteer", "Hope the next life is still Vietnamese" or the rich cultural features of "Mái đình làng biển" have touched the deepest layer of national pride inside young people who were once "lost".
The appearance of the sound of the piano under the skillful hands of artist Nguyen Quang not only brings a world-class art space, but also soothes and evokes noble aesthetic vibrations - something that is easily stiff after years of burying in the virtual world.
In that atmosphere, singer Ngoc Tram's sharing about the journey of pursuing youthful dreams and aspirations has become a "fire spot", adding motivation for them to believe that: Talent and aspiration always have a place, just need us to be brave enough to step out of temptations and master ourselves.
It is known that the IVS education system and the Ladecen game addiction and skill education center are places where many families choose to send their children when disconnection has reached its peak, when helplessness and anxiety have eroded all unilateral efforts of parents. They entrust their children's future to the collective of teachers not to "reform", but to find a methodical transformation roadmap that families cannot confidently and proactively implement.
Here, young children will have to get used to a military lifestyle such as waking up at 5:30 am, folding square blankets like matchboxes, eating and drinking regularly and exercising at high intensity. But steel discipline is just "the skeleton". The "nervous system" that nurtures the souls of children is the intersection of culture and art.
