At HEI Schools, we see every mud stain as a beautiful sign of learning. Science shows that playing in the dirt is like a natural 'vitamin' for your child’s immune system and a 'spark' for their creativity. We promise to keep them safe and help them clean up afterward, so they can enjoy the best of both worlds: the freedom of nature and the comfort of home. Let's celebrate these messy, happy moments together!

At HEI Schools Saigon Central, we implement the “Smooth Start” program, an orientation model built upon developmental psychology and scientific evidence regarding early childhood adaptation.

At HEI Schools Saigon Central, we embrace play-based pedagogy not as a break from learning, but as the primary vehicle for it. Scientific evidence consistently shows that play-based environments provide the richest soil for language to bloom.

Young children need and want your attention, and they will seek it in whatever way works. By using positive reinforcement and phrases, you can encourage desired behavior in your little one and build a deeper relationship with them along the way.

The Project Approach—as outlined in Judy Harris Helm and Lilian Katz’s Young Investigators: The Project Approach in the Early Years—remains one of the most inspiring frameworks for engaging young children in authentic inquiry.
