Hanoi Founder’s Day Carnival: Where we belong

The annual Founder’s Day Carnival is a chance for RMIT Vietnam students, alumni, and staff and their families to gather and build a stronger community – while having lots of fun!

This year’s Carnival for Hanoi City campus took place on 30 September at ASEAN Resort, about 45 minutes away from Hanoi, and saw 450 people enjoy carnival games and performances.

What made this year’s Carnival particularly special was its theme ‘Where We Belong’.

“‘Where We Belong’ is a perfect theme for this year’s Carnival,” said Professor Gael McDonald, President of RMIT Vietnam, as she tested her skills at one of the many carnival games.

“It’s about creating a sense of community in RMIT, whether it’s at the Saigon South campus or at the Hanoi campus.”
