Modern and purpose
built campus
Located on a total of 10 hectares, with total building area of 45,000 m2, the schools has a capacity of 2,000 students from kindergarten to high school, including a dormitory area for students age 11 and above.
The architecture of the school uses inspiration from the mountainous scenery and the signature rice paddy terraces – a signature cultural trait from the Northwestern territories of Vietnam as well as focuses on preserving the natural formation of the land.
The “zig-zag” structure together with the patterns of the school is to adapt the school and blend the school into the natural surrounding environment, bringing green open space to the school – but at the same time has an exclusive community feel.
The material used for the building and construction of the school is environmentally friendly and the colors used is a good blend and combination with the school’s natural surrounding.
