The second Hola Summer Camp, organized by FPT University Hanoi, took place with the enthusiastic participation of nearly 1,000 class monitors and secretaries from high schools across Northern provinces.
Hola Summer Camp was not just a summer camp; it was also a place for students to develop teamwork skills, build new relationships, hone leadership abilities, and grow into confident young leaders for the future.
In its second edition, Hola Summer Camp not only maintained its lively spirit but also introduced even more exciting activities, offering participants a memorable experience at FPTU. One of the standout activities from the first to the second camp was the opportunity for participants to transform into “citizens” of one of the four “F-P-T-U” villages. They engaged in a series of games that required creativity, quick thinking, and teamwork skills, such as solving puzzles in the Amazing Race, the Cay uoc nguyen, or the Anh trai vuot ngan chong gai.
After engaging in exciting activities and challenging themselves in the morning games, the participants got the chance to meet and have a direct conversation with Mr. Hoang Nam Tien, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors at FPT University.
During the talk show, Mr. Tien guided the participants through team-building games and highlighted common issues in teamwork. He also shared management skills that participants could learn from these games.
Mr. Hoang Nam Tien shared valuable experiences and lessons.
He emphasized a lifestyle of “quality and chill with style,” where “chill” is not just about relaxing but also enjoying the good things in life. Meanwhile, living “quality” means stepping out of your comfort zone and daring to challenge yourself with new experiences.
At the end of the program, the participants joined in a vibrant collective singing session, creating an enthusiastic atmosphere. With the warm energy, the talk show became a brilliant experience, with thousands of flashing lights creating a colorful and impressive light painting.
After concluding a series of lively and meaningful activities, the participants continued to enjoy a vibrant, colorful music party at the DJ Party. This was an opportunity for everyone to immerse themselves in dynamic music and sparkling lights. Several special talent performances by the students caught the audience’s attention, making the atmosphere even more exciting.
Known for the spirit of “work hard, play hard,” the party stage was lavishly invested in sound and lighting. This allowed participants to freely showcase their talents, immerse themselves in the energetic atmosphere, and enjoy the most explosive moments with friends.
Sharing her feelings about participating in Hola Summer Camp 2, Nguyen Thi Hoang Linh from Class 11D1, Xuan Giang High School, said, “I felt very happy to participate in Hola Summer Camp and experience all the activities here. I learned a lot about leadership and organizing activities. The mentors at FPTU did an amazing job, and that made me admire them and want to become an inspirational person like them.”
Linh shared that her favorite activity at the summer camp was the DJ Party night. She said that although everyone had given their all throughout the day, their enthusiasm seemed to multiply by nightfall. The music night, with everyone’s talent performances, left a very memorable impression.
The most memorable moment for her was: “Joining the games that strengthened team spirit, sharing simple meals together, and capturing the best photos at Hola Summer Camp 2.”
With “13 hours” of experience at Hola Summer Camp, the participants not only had the opportunity to bond closely with new teammates but also learned and cultivated qualities to become great leaders in the future.
