Why do families choose HAIS?
Mr Marcel
Primary School Parent
I have three sons who attend Primary and Secondary at HAIS, and they’ve been here for three years now. To me, HAIS is very much a boutique-style school. You can see it in the small class sizes and the quality of teaching. It’s reassuring to know there’s a cap on the number of students per class, which ensures more focused attention and meaningful interaction. What truly stands out is the consistency and commitment of the teachers. Many have been here long-term, and that makes a real difference. They know the children well, watch them grow, and guide them through each stage of their learning journey. It’s a beautiful combination, high-quality teaching in a small, supportive environment. And the results show in how happy and confident the children are.
Ms Virginia
Secondary and Primary Parent
We feel incredibly fortunate to have chosen HAIS for our two girls five years ago; it was the perfect fit for them. When they first started, our oldest was in Year 3 and our youngest in kindergarten. Now, they are in Years 8 and 5! HAIS has dedicated and professional teachers and teaching assistants who not only share their knowledge but also genuinely care about the children’s well-being. The leadership team and staff are always attentive, ensuring that our girls feel supported. Both girls are thriving academically and enjoy participating in the diverse programs the school offers, particularly swimming, art, drama, music, and field trips. Although they are naturally shy and reserved, their personalities are respected, and we've seen tremendous growth in their confidence. They are making wonderful memories with their friends and teachers, which is the most valuable part of being part of the HAIS community.
Ms Natalie
Early Years and Primary Parent
Being part of the HAIS Early Years programme has been an absolute joy for our family, mostly because of the really caring approach that the teachers have towards the children. We have observed significant growth in our kids' fundamental skills, including literacy, numeracy, and cultural understanding. The diverse backgrounds and family dynamics of the children at HAIS have positively impacted our kids, enhancing their confidence in social interactions. In terms of the physical development, I'm really satisfied with the growth I've seen in terms of their ability to participate in sports. There are really fun and engaging competitions, such as the house competitions they have every Friday, and also sports like swimming which they absolutely love.
Mr Tam
Primary Parent
My daughter, Dâu Tây, has been studying at HAIS since she was 18 months old and is now in Year 1. At first, I was very concerned about the 15-kilometer distance from home to school, especially during rainy and windy weather. However, once she settled in, she began to truly enjoy her time at HAIS, and we decided to continue her education here. Research shows that the early years, from 0 to 5, are crucial for brain development and lay the foundation for a child’s future. At HAIS, I truly appreciate the open environment, the dedicated teachers, and the opportunities for children to explore their surroundings. Most importantly, my daughter is excited and happy to go to school each day.
Mr Jack
Early Years Parent
Anna has been at HAIS for 3 years now. Watching her grow and develop over this time has been truly amazing. She has made significant progress in both English and Vietnamese language skills, and it’s been wonderful to see her overall development as a person. HAIS offers a unique educational setup with both Vietnamese and Western educators, providing Anna with a balanced and diverse exposure to different cultures and learning approaches. It’s been incredible to witness this blend in her education. Anna also benefits from numerous outdoor learning experiences and excursions off-campus, which I find very enriching. She has made many good friends, which is crucial at this stage, and there’s a strong sense of community at the school as well.
Ms Jennifer
Teacher & Secondary School Parent
As both a parent and a member of staff, I have experienced HAIS from different perspectives, and I can honestly say that I love being part of this community. The school offers a strong academic programme while also encouraging students to explore their passions through the arts, sports, leadership opportunities, and extracurricular activities. What makes HAIS truly special, however, is its sense of community. Students, teachers, and families genuinely care for one another and create an environment where every child feels supported. As my daughter prepares to graduate from Primary School and begin Secondary School, there is no greater vote of confidence I can give than choosing HAIS for my own child.

Many of our families choose to live in either Da Nang or Hoi An, as both locations offer easy access to HAIS through our provided bus service.
While Da Nang offers the luxuries of big city life and international airport transfers – it is also a thriving city built for families, with major theme park attractions and sporting and cultural events.
Hoi An on the other hand, is a charming historical town with a close-knit community and pristine beaches. Families here enjoy days by the sea, buying groceries from the local markets, and riding bikes through the paddy fields.
