NLCS Ho Chi Minh City

NLCS Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is the fourth addition to the NLCS Family of Schools. It opened its doors in August 2022 as a selective and highly academic co-educational junior school for students aged 6 – 11 years old.

NLCS HCMC provides students with the best possible elements of the Vietnamese, NLCS and international curricula. It also connects to Vietnamese identity through its dual-language learning environment and focus on culture and language.

Fundamental to the ethos at NLCS HCMC is a belief in the importance of developing students’ enjoyment and excitement about their learning. This is achieved through the combination of an ambitious academic education with exceptional pastoral care and a range of subject-led extra-curricular activities catering for every possible talent.

Campus

The campus is purpose-built, and centrally located. It is carefully designed to provide the best possible learning experience for students and a close community feel. The large, bright classrooms utilise the latest technologies to enhance learning. Alongside the classrooms, there are dedicated spaces for the study of science, IT, art, and music as well as outdoor spaces for play and learning. NLCS HCMC students have full and exclusive access to the facilities at the Vietnam International Institute of Sports during the school day.
