A Reggio-Inspired School for children from 1 year to 15 years of age from Nursery, Preschool to Primary and Middle School.
“We think of a school for young children as an integral living organism, as a place of shared lives and relationships among many adults and very many children. We think of school as a sort of construction in motion, continuously adjusting itself.”

Children are active protagonists of their growth and development processes as our core value at Aurora Ecosystem.
“We are and we need to be convinced of this – in an ecosystem: Our journey on earth is a journey that we take together with the environment, with nature, with the cosmos; Our organism, our morality, our culture, our feelings are connected to the environment, to the universe, to the world. And therein lies the web of our life.”
– Loris Malaguzzi
THREADS OF IDENTITY – “Weaving the stories that shape us”
We transition from place to identity, aiming to involve more families in contributing to children’s voices. We aspire for our learners to empower themselves, enhance self-awareness, and foster healthy relationships with others and within themselves. Additionally, our focus extends to their overall well-being, encompassing mental and physical health, among other aspects.
The admission for the school year 2024 – 2025, starting another fabulous learning journey from August 2024 is now open to welcome children and learners from 12 months to 15 years of age.

Children in our Nursery and Preschool develop number sense and literacy skills through everyday projects and provocation in their daily exploration.
Play sets the foundation for the development of critical social and emotional knowledge and skills. Through play, children learn to forge connections with others and to share, negotiate and resolve conflicts, as well as learn self-advocacy skills. Play also teaches children leadership as well as group skills. Furthermore, play is a natural tool that children can use to build their resilience and coping skills, as they learn to navigate relationships and deal with social challenges as well as conquer their fears.

Our educational philosophy is inspired by the Reggio Emilia experience within a Vietnamese cultural context. Responsibility, community involvement, respect, and sustainability are at the core of what drives our school. Under-pinning our educational philosophy is the image of the child: a competent child, full of knowledge, potential, and curiosity, active in constructing his or her own knowledge through interactions with others and the environment around them. By adopting the New Zealand curriculum, we are able to integrate a Reggio Emilia-inspired philosophy, with an Inquiry-Based approach to teaching and learning practices.
Our vision for learning in Senior Primary and Middle School
As in Preschool and Primary, we maintain our focus upon the child at the centre of all we do and our vision of them as capable individuals with ownership and agency over their learning. Our vision of an Aurora Learner is equally applicable for the Middle School children. However, there are some differences to teaching and learning for these grade levels. he learners are increasingly independent and eager to research and complete projects alone and in groups. We allow greater flexibility for them to do this so that they can plan events such as the Aurora Olympics, end of year disco, etc. on a broader scale and engage in more learning outside the classroom in the community to gain more authentic understanding of sustainability and social issues in the local area.

Aurora was started in October 2015 and opened its doors to the first children in March of 2016, representing the fulfillment of a dream of a local mother and ambitious educators who had long envisioned a high-quality Early Years education and care environment for Vietnam’s youngest citizens.
