Ecopark is an ecological real estate project developed by DB Group, applying the 5E philosophy (Eco, Emotion, Edu-entertainment, Economic, Elite) in urban design, to connect life with education and nature.
In urban areas developed by Ecopark, schools are located in the middle of green spaces, creating an educational journey linked to nature, experiences and daily life.
Urban areas invested by the founder of Ecopark include Ecopark (Hung Yen), Eco Central Park (Nghe An), Eco Retreat (Tay Ninh)... Each project is developed based on the characteristics of climate, weather, terrain, and lifestyle, and is consistent with the 5E philosophy, including Eco: (ecology), Emotion (emotions), Edu-entertainment (Entertainment - Education), Economic (economic) and Elite (elite).
In particular, education is one of the foundations in the development orientation of businesses. Real estate developer Ecopark aims to build a harmonious living ecosystem, where each person can learn for life, actively explore and develop personal potential. Education is therefore not just in the classroom, but expands into a journey of comprehensive physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development; aims to create generations that are confident, humane and responsible to the community.
For example, in the Ecopark urban area, schools are integrated into the living space and become a part of residents' daily activities. The school system here includes: Edison Schools, Greenfield School, British University Vietnam (BUV), Tokyo Medical University and many preschools.
Children can walk or bike to school instead of relying on transportation, to have more time to exercise, chat with friends and experience the living space.
"Ecopark residents and I don't spend much time, we don't rush to pick up and drop off our children, but it's like a walk, a walk, and exercise every day," shared Ms. Nguyen Hong Nhung, a resident of Sky Oasis, Ecopark.
In Eco Central Park urban area, FPT multi-level high school with an area of more than 27,000 square meters and 2,800 students has just opened its first course, contributing to forming a "live - learn - play" ecosystem right in the urban area.
Mr. Nguyen Huu Kien, a resident of The Garden 1, Eco Central Park, said that since moving here, his family's life has become happier and healthier. Children study right in a green urban area, forming positive habits early on such as being close to nature, exercising regularly, and proactively exploring to develop both physical, thinking and social skills. My child's way to school now is walking, cycling with friends, siblings... "Seeing my child laugh, be optimistic, and learn many things makes every parent feel secure," Mr. Kien said.
According to Mr. Nguyen Duc Canh, General Director of DB Group - founder of Ecopark, the school system in urban areas not only adds educational amenities, but also contributes to perfecting the living ecosystem for modern families, where the quality of education and the quality of the living environment are placed on the same foundation.
In the Eco Retreat urban area (Tay Ninh), Ecopark is also developing the Rung Phuong subdivision with educational facilities located in a central location. The highlight is the 7,000 m2 kindergarten and the 22,000 m2 Edison high school, with a teaching capacity of about 3,600 students, expected to enroll students from the 2027-2028 school year.
Ms. Le Tue Minh, General Director of Innochain Education Investment Group, President of Edison school system, said that shortening the distance from home to school not only helps reduce travel time but also creates more opportunities for children to exercise and experience.
At Rung Phuong, when schools are in operation, children can walk or bike to school via internal roads. Schools, parks, playgrounds and residences are arranged in the same space, making going to school a part of children's daily activities.
According to Ms. Tue Minh, for adults, this is convenience in transportation; For children, walking and cycling with friends can become memorable experiences in the process of developing and perfecting children's abilities. From things encountered in life, each child can form a different interest. The process of discovery can help children realize their own abilities and interests.
"Edison located in the middle of the Eco Retreat forest will be a large and close enough environment for children to dare to try, dare to make mistakes and start again every moment as students," Ms. Tue Minh added.
In addition to the educational space and landscape aimed at children, Rung Phuong subdivision has housing types including boulevard townhouses, garden townhouses, semi-detached villas and single villas, with areas ranging from 80 to 370 m2, suitable for many family sizes.
Information about Rung Phuong and Eco Retreat subdivision is provided through the project's system of 20 official agents.
