こんにちは。新しいホームページのEISについての「家族の言葉」をかいてみたのですが、色々書きたいことがあり過ぎて最初は350文字くらいになってしまい、文字数減らしたのですが260文字くらいあります。。200文字以下にしたほうがいいでしょうか？その場合はまた文字数減らします。私たち家族が学校を決める上で重要視した事がIBスクールであること、規模が大きすぎないこと、学校見学の時に子供自身の学校についての印象が良い事でした。それらにピッタリ当てはまったのがEISでした。学校見学ではエミリーさんが日本語で親身になって対応してくださり、カリキュラムの説明ではセカンダリーヘッドマスターが自ら分かりやすく説明をして下さいました。そしてなにより生徒たちが先生方ととても楽しそうに学校生活を送っている様子に魅力を感じてEISに入学を決めました。入学後は子供自身、学校生活にもすぐに慣れ意欲的に毎日楽しく学校に通っています。
よろしくお願いいたします。

Elijah attended a preschool in our previous country of posting and a kindergarten in HCMC. Although he was extremely well looked after by his 2 previous schools, trouble was he still could not read. We enrolled him into EIS and within a few months he came home, looked at the TV and said ‘Sony’. There has been no stopping him since. In my past experience in my interaction with EIS’s current leadership and team, it could be hard not to see that a fertile and international environment has been created for which children are nurtured to grow. The built environment of the campus plays a significant and pivotal role to facilitate such growth in the children. Rather than a large institutional building, the facility is scattered into an organic friendly and conducive learning village. This fosters greater interaction amongst all members in the school as well as a healthy dose of vitamin D every now and again. We feel blessed to have found EIS for Elijah and his sisters. It is truly a village of learning and a rare and exemplary educational model, not only academically but socially as well. Creating a valuable community of global citizens for the world.

I would like to share with you my experience with EIS. We are a family with 2 children aged 5 and 7 and we have been living in Vietnam for 4 years already. I think I can say that we finally found the school our kids (and also we as parents) really like. EIS has a broad multicultural environment that mixing all possible nationalities. The teachers for both kids are perfect and we even hear their names at home many times. EIS works as a community. We experienced other schools in HCMC as well but at EIS parents are truly part of the school (for sure only if they want themselves). What we also value is accurate but not over-extensive communication from school. You receive all necessary information without being “spammed”. I highly recommend EIS to all families who are moving to HCMC. It is great place to have your kids at school.
