A Cambridge Certified School

Cambridge schools are part of a global community working to prepare students for success in our changing world.

As a Cambridge-certified school, HAIS gains access to a unique range of teaching and learning resources, professional development opportunities, a world-class curriculum and a wide range of qualifications for 5 to 19-year-olds.

>35 Nationalities

Although HAIS is still a growing school, we are fortunate to have a rather large diversity of nationalities and multiculturalism and are proud to have more than 35 nationalities within the HAIS community.

Incorporated MOET Programme

Students in Preparatory – Grade 5 are taught both the Ministry of Education and Training curriculum (MOET) and the English as a Second Language and Science Cambridge International curriculum. Our Bilingual programme develops students’ skills in mathematics, language, and more while encouraging inquiry and enthusiasm for learning. Although the emphasis is given to global perspectives, our Bilingual programme embraces Vietnamese values and culture. We offer a play and structured inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning.

Multi-Purpose & Green Campus

Our grounds have been specially designed to incorporate spaces where students can gain hands-on experience shaping their natural environment while focusing on academics, creativity and living a robust lifestyle. The grounds are filled with lush gardens and feature large, open spaces, giving our students a place where they can learn in a safe and healthy environment. We continuously make the HAIS campus a perfect space to cater to every student’s interest and passion.

Student-Centred

Each child is unique and as such, their unique interests should be at the centre of their learning. HAIS is in the enviable position of being small enough to be able to truly focus on each individual student so that they can find their passion and realise their dreams.

Community-Minded

HAIS has an active and dynamic school community that welcomes parents’ involvement in our events and programmes. HAIS believes that the active participation of parents is an essential part of their children’s education and, thus, vital to the healthy growth of our school.

A Word From Our Parents

We were very lucky to have chosen HAIS for our two girls five years ago; it was the perfect match for them. The oldest was in Year 3 and the youngest in kindergarten, and they are now about to start Year 8 and Year 5! HAIS has dedicated and professional teachers and teacher assistants who not only share their knowledge but also care for the wellbeing of the children. The rest of the leadership team and staff are always looking out for them. The girls are doing very well academically and participating in the various programs that the school offers. They especially enjoy swimming, art, drama, music, and field trips. They are both shy and reserved, but their personalities are well respected, and we’ve seen them grow and thrive so much. They are making wonderful memories at the school and with their friends, which is the most valuable aspect of being part of the HAIS community.

My two boys attend HAIS and are thriving. The teachers and management are supportive and student-focused. We live in Da Nang but the boys get the shuttle bus as it’s worth the travel. The mix of curriculum, arts, sport & swimming, STEM, the garden and extra-curricular activities makes this a well-rounded school. We left the country for nearly a year and chose this school again on our return.

The best school in Hoi An and Da Nang! The campus is large and very well-equipped. There is no equivalent in Hoi An and having tested the other local international school, I can say that Hoi An International school is the best. My two children 4 and 9 go there. The teachers are very good and it is a caring and welcoming atmosphere.

We have watched our son grow over the last 3 years, HAIS’s influence both from the teachers and the campus is what we were hoping for when enrolling Toan. The knowledge of both social and academic skills he has gained are inspiring. The school’s positive attention to students’ total wellbeing is what gives it the edge over others. The school continues its community growth and I’m sure it will be the first choice for parents when considering their children’s future education.

Thank you HAIS team for their non-stop effort to create an enchanting study environment for international and local students. Their campus provides safe, green surroundings as well as modern, sufficient facilities and equipment toward international school standards with a big organic veggie garden and a swimming pool. Their teachers and staff proudly provide a high quality of knowledge, experience, and care for our children. We as parents are happy that our kid comes to HAIS school with joy every single day.
