Launched in 1940, the Reggio Emilia Approach is an innovative educational method founded and developed by the Italian psychologist Loris Malaguzzi (1920-1994). “Our mission is to arouse the creativity of young children so that they conquer the highest mountain possible with their own feet.”
Little Em's Preschool will be the exemplary model for the Reggio Emilia Approach so that teachers, parents and educational institutions can visit, learn about and experience the Reggio Emilia Approach. They will be able to understand how to contextualise it for the Vietnamese culture and current education system.

The curriculum at Little Em's not only prepares children with the skills they need for the future, but also combines a diverse and wide range of subjects integrated with the arts to give them holistic personality formation and competence development.
