Fortunately for you, Vietnam switched fairly recently from the attenuated to the killed polio vaccine.   Your list is based on what your children need for their return but you might want to check your country's recommendations for traveling to Vietnam for more than a few days.  In particular, you might want to check out Hepatitis both A and B, Japanese Encephalitis, MMR, and chicken pox.  These are the US CDC's recommendations but Australia's are probably similar.  Your children may already have had MMR and chicken pox but I doubt that they have the others.  Check first as the doses and schedule for children may differ from that for adults. 

If you are going to be in Hoi An for a full year, you might want to repost your question on the Da Nang sub-forum as that is likely where you will be getting most of your medical care.
