RMIT Vietnam community celebrates 15th Anniversary

Carnival games, festive song and dance, and a flower arranging competition marked the start of RMIT’s 15th Anniversary celebrations in Saigon and Hanoi.

Last weekend, Saigon South campus saw more than 1,500 staff, students and alumni enjoy a day of fun-filled games and activities at the Founder’s Day Carnival – named in honour of RMIT's founder Mr Francis Ormond. 

This year's Carnival also celebrated RMIT’s 15 years in Vietnam, a celebration that will continue until graduation ceremonies in December.

In Hanoi, the 15th Anniversary celebration included a competition where Hanoi City campus staff raced to create the most beautiful flower arrangement.
