Anne Hill International School was founded in 2015 and officially established as an educational institution in 2016 under the decision of the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee. The school was created by Anne Hill Joint Stock Company and began as a preschool offering international early years education. Over time, it expanded to include a Primary Campus in 2020, broadening its educational scope. The school continues to operate as a privately owned, international institution regulated by the Department of Education and Training (DOET) in Ho Chi Minh City.
The Anne Hill International School community includes families from a range of national backgrounds living in Ho Chi Minh City. The school regularly hosts events such as International Day, Science Fair, and Book Week, where students and parents participate in themed activities that celebrate learning and diversity. Community gatherings are shared through the school’s online channels, reflecting a close connection between staff, students, and families.
Anne Hill International School’s parent community is represented through the AHI Support Parent Programme (AHISPP), which provides opportunities for parents to assist with school initiatives and activities. The group supports classroom events, fundraising efforts, and family engagement programmes throughout the year. Parents are invited to help during school celebrations, cultural days, and charity drives. AHISPP also collaborates with teachers during community events and parent–teacher meetings to strengthen home–school communication. While not a formal PTA in name, the AHISPP performs a similar community-support role within the school.
Anne Hill International School’s Preschool Campus in Thu Đức City (HCMC) welcomes children 18 months to 5 years into Playgroup, Nursery, and Kindergarten classes.
