Hanoi Forecast to Experience Heavy Rain on August 24, 2026

According to the latest information from the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, due to the impact of Typhoon No. 4 – Narra, Hanoi is forecast to experience moderate to heavy rain and thunderstorms during the night of August 23 and throughout Monday, August 24, 2026. Some areas may experience very heavy rainfall, posing a potential risk of flooding. Thunderstorms may also bring lightning, whirlwinds, and strong wind gusts, which could affect travel and the safety of students.

At the same time, in accordance with the direction of the Hanoi Department of Education and Training, educational institutions are required to closely monitor weather developments and actual conditions in their respective areas. Schools are encouraged to proactively decide whether to transition to online learning on August 24, 2026, when necessary, promptly inform parents, and organize appropriate teaching and learning activities.

Based on weather forecasts, guidance from the relevant authorities, and an assessment of actual conditions, Wellspring Hanoi has decided to proactively transition to online learning on August 24, 2026. This decision aims to minimize the need for students, teachers, and staff to travel under potentially unsafe weather conditions.

Wellspring Hanoi Online Learning Plan for August 24, 2026

Specific information regarding class schedules, connection methods, and necessary instructions will be communicated directly by the School Leadership Team and Homeroom Teachers to parents and students through the School's official communication channels, including the Parent Portal and class groups.

“Everything for Our Students” – Safety Comes First in Every Decision

Adjusting the learning format in response to unusual weather conditions is more than simply an emergency response measure. For Wellspring Hanoi, it is also a consistent reflection of the school's philosophy of “Everything for Our Students.” Every decision is considered from the perspective of students' safety, happiness, and best interests.

The transition to online learning therefore does not change the school's commitment to educational quality. Teachers continue to accompany and support students, while learning activities remain appropriate for each age group and are delivered through a more flexible format suited to the actual circumstances.

This is also part of Wellspring's ongoing effort to build an educational environment where every WISer can be safe to learn, happy to grow, and confident to develop.

Ready to Adapt Learning Formats – A Digital Foundation for Uninterrupted Learning

Transitioning from in-person learning to online learning during an unexpected weather event requires more than a quick decision. It also depends on technology infrastructure, teachers' digital capabilities, and a well-established communication system connecting the School and families.
At Wellspring Hanoi, technology has long been integrated into teaching, learning, and school management as an essential part of the everyday educational environment. The School uses the Microsoft Education ecosystem, specifically licensed Microsoft Teams, to support teaching and learning activities, collaboration, and communication. As a result, when a transition to online learning is necessary, teachers can quickly move their classes into the online environment, deliver learning materials, and maintain interaction with students.

This readiness is supported by the digital capabilities of Wellspring Hanoi's teaching team. For many years, Wellspring Hanoi has been recognized as a Microsoft Showcase School, and the school has one of the largest numbers of Microsoft Innovative Educator Experts (MIEEs) among schools nationwide. Technology therefore is not only used in exceptional situations; it has become an ongoing capability within the teaching team, enabling teachers to flexibly design and deliver learning experiences across a variety of contexts.

Alongside online classrooms, the Parent Portal and digital communication channels enable the School to promptly share schedules, instructions, and necessary updates with parents. Communication between the School – Teachers – Students – Families can therefore remain continuous, particularly in situations that require a rapid response.

Behind a single day of online learning is therefore much more than a classroom link. It represents the coordinated efforts of technology infrastructure, teachers' digital capabilities, school management systems, and the proactive adaptability that Wellspring Hanoi has developed throughout its digital transformation journey in education.

The School Continues to Monitor Conditions for August 25, 2026

The School will continue to closely monitor weather developments, warnings, and guidance from the relevant authorities in order to proactively determine learning arrangements for the following days, including Tuesday, August 25, 2026. Parents will be promptly informed if there are any changes.

As weather conditions remain complex, the School respectfully encourages parents and students to minimize unnecessary travel, take proactive measures to ensure safety, and regularly follow official information from the relevant authorities.

The cooperation between Families and the School is an important part of creating a safe educational environment where every member shares the responsibility of protecting and supporting our students.
