HEI Schools has 8 kindergarten units open in Australia and the expansion continues. Ken Yu, the HEI Schools Australia managing director commented:
 
"We are very excited by the opportunity to expand into the Adelaide market. HEI Schools has been looking to expand into South Australia for some time and the prestigious development provided the perfect platform. Both Market Square and HEI Schools are unique ventures – they complement each other and will allow us to bring something new and innovative to the community. 

HEI Schools in Market Square in Adelaide will open as full scale HEI Schools child care centre. It uses the Finnish based HEI Curriculum that emphasises play-based learning. All teachers are trained continuously by the Finnish pedagogies from the University of Helsinki. The centre is designed in Nordic style -  children will learn and grow in a calm yet inspiring environment to get an optimal learning experience and a good start for a future learning path.
