Our school holds various school events throughout the year. In Kindergarten, events such as the New Year celebration, Halloween party and Christmas party are held to introduce the children to both cultures of U.S. and Japan. In Elementary school, students are involved in activities such as the student union, camping trip, field trip, sports day, school festival, school work presentation day, music festival, school marathon and other memorable events. These moments we provide are precious life events and will remain in their heart for rest of their future. Through these events, students also learn valuable lessons that can only be obtained by hands-on experience. One example is through plant cultivation, they learn to become more sympathetic and to have kind heart. In Middle School, students participate in international exchange programs and extracurricular activities, which provide a gateway to various cultures allowing them to learn how to be internationally open minded individual. Additionally, through various school events listed previously, we aim to enrich students’ personalities and strengthen their various social skills. Furthermore, by providing education through information technology and environmental studies, we promise your child will be prepared and thrive in the global society of the 21st century.
