The ceremony was attended by Nguyen Dang Hoang, Consul in charge of community affairs at the Consulate General of Viet Nam in Osaka, along with a large number of parents and students in the area as well as representatives of Vietnamese-language classes in Yao City and the “Em yeu tieng Viet” (I love Vietnamese language) class in the Osaka area. Their presence reflected the community’s deep concern for preserving and promoting the Vietnamese language in the lives of overseas Vietnamese.
The opening ceremony is a concrete effort by the Vietnamese community in Japan to implement Politburo Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW on developing Vietnamese culture. Accordingly, in the new academic year, the school will continue to open Vietnamese-language classes for the community, especially for Vietnamese children currently living in Japan.
Speaking at the ceremony, headmistress Le Thuong shared the journey of building and developing Cay Tre Community Vietnamese Language School, emphasising that Vietnamese is not only a means of communication, but also the soul of the nation’s culture. She affirmed that, in the context of deep international integration, maintaining and developing Vietnamese for younger generations abroad means preserving identity, nurturing love for the homeland, and fostering a sense of responsibility towards the country.
At the ceremony, students had the opportunity to perform cultural performances imbued with national identity.
The opening ceremony for the new academic year was also a practical activity marking the 95th anniversary of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union (March 26, 1931-2026), helping to educate younger generations about tradition and ideals while inspiring their sense of responsibility towards the homeland and the nation.
