ISHCMC’s Primary Campus in Thu Duc City serves children aged 2–10 through the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) from Early Explorer to Grade 5. Learning happens in English with small classes. Facilities include an award-winning Primary Library, Fab Lab, Makerspace, food tech rooms, film studio, gym, a 25m six-lane pool, and outdoor courts—spaces that support inquiry, creativity, movement and play. Students choose from 150+ after-school activities across sports, arts, coding and production. The campus offers a city-wide school bus service (age 4+) and a shuttle connecting Primary and Secondary, making daily logistics straightforward for families. A distinctive feature is the Primary campus’s design-and-make focus (Fab Lab/Makerspace) embedded in the PYP, enabling practical, project-based learning from early years onward.
