On the afternoon of September 11, 2025, the High School of Education Sciences (HES) became a space of inspiring stories. Luu Quoc Anh, a former student from the 2nd cohort of HES and the current drummer for the band District 105, returned to share his journey.

His is a journey from the first drum beats in a corner of the school to a historic milestone: District 105 became the first Asian band to perform at Ieperfest in Europe. Through his sincere stories about effort, sacrifice, and perseverance, Quoc Anh ignited the fire of passion in the heart of every HES student.

The talk was also an opportunity for teachers and students to engage in a dialogue, listening to diverse perspectives on pursuing one's passion and staying true to oneself.

The talk show concluded, but the message "dare to dream, dare to take the first step, and be persistent" still resonated. We thank Luu Quoc Anh for returning to inspire and empower today's generation of HES students.
