Little Em’s Pre-school​

We are the first official Reggio Emilia Approach®️ pre-school in Vietnam. Our official partnership with Reggio Children – Italy, allows Little Em’s to provide an authentic Reggio Emilia Approach®️ experience that has been contextualized in the Vietnamese culture, for our children – so that we nurture global citizens who are deeply grounded in their local roots.

Is to inspire each student to discover their unique potential, bringing their knowledgable mind and caring heart to be the best version of themselves and contribute to creating the best version of the world.

At Little Em’s, we are proud to officially introduce the Reggio Emilia Approach® to parents which focuses on a child-led project approach. Reggio Emilia Approach® emphasises creativity and artistic representation as well as fostering the children’s intellectual development through encouraging young children to explore their environment and express themselves through all of their available expressive, communicative and cognitive languages.

The International Baccalaureate® aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment.

Our Purpose

Is to support young people in the journey to discover who they are, what they care deeply about and how to successfully navigate their way through life in a rapidly changing world.

Our COMPASS of PURPOSE is epitomized by the four cardinal points:

Respect

• Developing a thoughtful and caring generation who treat themselves, others, and all things around them with empathy, compassion, and respect.

Integrity

• Developing principled and reflective thinkers and doers who thrive for honesty and justice.

Understanding

• Developing open-minded and knowledgable inquirers who always have the space to be curious and strive to cultivate locally rooted global competence.

Responsibility

• Developing responsible young people who hold themselves accountable for their actions, who have a commitment to service and act to create positive differences in the world that we live in.

With these CORE VALUES, by which we live our vision, our students will discover their true purpose and become the future Ambassadors for Life.

The Reggio Emilia Approach®️ – an inquiry-based learning approach – values the belief that children are strong, competent and capable citizens who are full of wonder and curiosity to learn. It believes that children have a natural drive that makes them want to understand and know about the world around them and how this world relates to them. Every child brings with them deep curiosity and potential and this innate curiosity drives their interest to understand their world and their place within it. Children are believed to be capable of constructing their own methods of researching and learning using everything from play to a variety of other hands-on-learning experiences.
