Throughout the project, the 5A1 students learned about social enterprises, and VỤN Art is an enterprise that has accompanied Genesis to bring meaningful learning weeks on this topic. The children had the opportunity to directly meet workers with disabilities and ask many questions with the founder of this business. The children’s questions surprised the staff by showing how mature they are, and the teachers themselves were surprised by how invested the children were when participating in this experiential activity – it was almost as if they stopped being childish all together ^_^…
– What type of disability do most employees of VỤN Art find themselves with?
– How many products does VỤN Art sell a day?
– What is VỤN’s favorite item?
– In VỤN, how much are workers with disability paid? ^_^
– v…v…
The two MCs led all the attendees through the ceremony: General introduction about social enterprises; Introduction to VAN Art in particular; Q&A section; and Fabric mask making experience.
The Green Education Program representative gave a small gift to Vụn Art to express gratitude for their role in accompanying and bringing meaningful learning experiences to students.
