European International School (EIS) in Thao Dien, Thu Duc City, is known as an "educational village" for its inspiring European architectural features and community of students from more than 40 countries.
This enables students to learn more about the diversity of different cultures in green environments with natural beauty as their home.
Two buildings on the campus for science and language also provide a modern and progressive spirit for dynamic global students.
A cluster of 11 low-rise villas and beautiful gardens connected with sports facilities provide excellent learning and recreational spaces for students at European International School (EIS), which follows the motto: "it takes a village to raise a child."

"The school gives me the ability to look at educational projects and allows me to learn more about the culture here as well as communities in Vietnam and globally. I enjoy learning about that," said Fiona WarmBath, a student in grade 9 of EIS.
In a rapidly developing society, the need to choose the right school for children in Ho Chi Minh City is more significant than ever.
Parents living and working in this vibrant city understand the role that education plays in shaping their children's future. They know that quality education is essential for their children to develop the skills necessary for success in their lives and their careers.

Selecting the right school will help students go beyond academics. Safety, the quality of the learning environment, and support services also play a crucial role in the decision-making process.
Most parents today aim to provide their children with a well-rounded education and a wide network of connections to help them explore and confidently face future challenges.

According a school representative, EIS not only offers quality educational programs but also provides favorable conditions for students to connect with prestigious universities around the world.
The school assists students in selecting and applying to top international universities through personal interviews and conversations with academic advisors. This strong connection ensures that EIS students have access to diverse educational and career opportunities, preparing them for a promising future.
At EIS, students embark on the International Baccalaureate Degree Program (IBDP), a globally recognized program that not only introduces them to the material they will encounter in university but also teaches them how to approach knowledge and learning with an emphasis on holistic, inquiry-based self-motivation and renovation spirit.
Jo Robert, Deputy Head of School, said that the students always learn both independently and with teachers.
Teachers do not give the answer directly – students must find the answer themselves. This helps develop thinking and teamwork abilities.
Once students enter college, they will find the first year quite easy because they have had experience at EIS.
She said it can be said that all students and teachers at EIS are global citizens.
Teachers have experience working in many countries and exploring many cultures. All students here have the feeling of studying abroad, and this trains students to have an open mind to connect different cultures, not only for now but also for their future.
The school believes that creativity and self-discovery are vital aspects of a child's life. Students can participate in a variety of art classes as part of the curriculum and join after-school extracurricular clubs.
These activities allow students to explore different cultures and perfect their skills in areas such as music, theater, and visual arts.
Parents who visit EIS can realize the environment offers an idyllic haven in which children can thrive, learn, and grow. The unique villa-style school with a well-designed campus puts students at ease from their first day at EIS. See more information here.
