THEME
Session 1 - Who am I?-Our Individuality (3/20~3/24)
In "Who am I?", we will do various fun activities to get to know ourselves. What kind of person am I? What do I like and what do I not like? How do I feel in these situations? What do I want to do? We will deepen our understanding of ourselves and love ourselves more and more through activities that allow us to express our newfound selves to the fullest! Let's enjoy creating artwork that truly expresses yourself. *We stop accepting applications.
Session 2 - Who are You? - Our diversity (3/27~3/31)
In "Who are you?", you will discover interesting things about your friends by getting to know them. Through fun activities that involve working together, we can realize that everyone's differences are wonderful, and also realize the importance of ourselves.
Through art expression, you will make special friends only for you in the world.
Can you raise your friends with all your heart? *We stop accepting applications.

Please click and check following supply list.
Q：If I take more than one session will my child still enjoy it?
A：Each session includes craft making, singing songs, story books, fun worksheets and game activities based on the theme. You can take more than one session and enjoy different crafts, stories, songs and fun activities related to the weekly theme.
Q：How are the classes divided?
A：Classes are based on the child's date of birth with 12 to 18 students per class.
Q：Can my child be in the same class as my child’s friends?
A：We will consider this if you include the names of the child(ren) with whom you want to participate with on each other's application. Please note there is no guarantee that you will be in the same class. In addition, if the ages of the applicants are different, they will join the class for the child(ren) of the lower grade.
Q：Can you pick my child(ren) up near my house?
A：The bus route will be decided in consideration to the children's residence to participate in each session, so it may not be possible to meet your request. Most often you will meet at the nearest station or large street. Please understand this beforehand. In addition, we will contact you on Thursday or Friday of the week before the start of the session regarding the boarding place and time of the bus.
Q：My child(ren) can't speak English at all, is that OK?
A：Our summer program is created for many students of different levels to participate, so even if you do not have summer school experience, it is okay.
Q：Can I order a school lunch?
A：For lunch at our school, we ask a nearby lunchbox maker. It consists of usual food in a Japanese lunchbox, like rice and side dishes. There is no menu to choose from for the school lunch. Lunch will be ordered weekly and cannot be canceled. In principle, we do not accept school lunch orders for child(ren) with food allergies.
Q：What happens in the event of a disaster?
A：In the event of a disaster, our school is instructed by the fire department to wait at the school if there is no problem with the building. Depending on the disaster situation, we may have to evacuate to an evacuation site (Shonan Kokusai Muranishi Park) and be picked up. However, please be aware that the evacuation area may change depending on the situation at the time, with the student's safety taken first. In the event of a disaster, school bus operations will be canceled. In that case, we will do our best to protect the students until the parents come to pick them up. In the event of a disaster, information will be provided on Twitter (Twitter ID: hayamainter). Please check at each home.
Q：What happens if someone gets injured?
A：At our school, the staff takes great care to prevent any injuries or accidents, but in the unlikely event of an accident, we will take the following measures.
・ For minor injuries such as abrasions, we will provide first aid for disinfection, but in the case of injuries that can not be judged at the school, we will call parents to have the child picked up.
・ If an emergency is required, we will take the patient in an ambulance or school staff will transport the child to a hospital and have the guardian come to the hospital immediately. In the event of an accident or injury, we will contact the parents by telephone (injuries that require immediate attention), accident reports (large visible injuries, bruises, injuries near vital points), and bus reports (at school).
・ For small injuries and accidents that occur: small abrasions and cuts often occur in daily life, and parents may not be contacted due to the size of the injury or accident and the condition of the student.
If your child is injured without contact, please contact the school. Please note that dealing with all bruises and scratches is very difficult.
Q：What measures are HIS taking to prevent the spread of COVID-19?
