SPRING SCHOOL 2026

”Spring School 2026's Theme is "How Do We Think in a World Without One Right Answer?"

The focus of the upcoming spring school sessions is critical thinking. Giving your young minds the habits, tools, and ways of thought that can lead them to the self-reliance of finding their own answers.
Week one will ask “What is right? ”Whereas week two begins questioning “What is happiness?”
Oftentimes what is “Right” is not always what is “Happy”, and what is “Happy” is not always what is “Right.”
Students will not be given the answers, instead they will be guided and encouraged to question what they see, while finding answers to their questions.


















PROGRAM

  • Session 1

    Session 1 : 3/23~3/27
    Through Momotaro and The Three Little Pigs:“What Should We Do?

    Session 1 - Through Momotaro and The Three Little Pigs:“What Should We Do? (3/23~3/27)

    Through the fable of Momotaro and the Three Little Pigs, students will aim to question the things around them. This session's focus is to allow the students a free and open learning environment in which they can begin to question the surrounding world all on their own!
    We will dive into ideas such as good and evil, friendship and courage, and what is right? More importantly, how do humans decide what is right?
    Our goal is to help the next generation be able to understand what is right, as well as the larger world around them through art.

  • Session 2

    Session 2 : 3/30~4/3
    Through The Straw Millionaire and Hans in Luck: What Makes Us Truly Happy?

    Where Session one's focus was on “what is right?” session two aims to get children thinking critically about “what is happiness?” Through the fables of The Straw Millionaire and Hans in Luck.
    As educators we strive to give our students the tools they need to find the answers, as the answers are ever changing and evolving. The students, with the materials and learning tools in hand, will be tasked with finding their own meaning of happiness, what makes us happy, and how we experience that happiness.

FAQ

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 student classes determined?
A:It is based on the date of birth of the child. Each class has a maximum of 13 to 18 students.
Q:My child cannot speak English very well, will he/she be okay?
A:Please be assured that we are preparing programs that are fun for students from native English to beginner-level students. In addition, we have Japanese staff in case of emergency, so we will support your child.
Q:What is the school lunch like?
A:At Shirokane School, we have ordered a nutritionist supervised lunch box for infants. The lunchbox is a nutritious lunch with rice, main dish and side dishes. Lunch is available on a weekly basis. Please note that due to the order, lunch cannot be canceled once you have applied.
Q : What happens in the event of a disaster?
A:In the event of a disaster, we will wait at the school if the school is safe. If we find it difficult to stay in the school, we will evacuate safely and promptly to Minato District Children's Amusement Acorn Park. Then, under the guidance of the government and local governments, we will move to the second evacuation destination, Ikiiki Plaza. Depending on the disaster situation, the government may evacuate to another safe area at the direction of the government, but we assure that all staff will do their best to protect the children.
Q : What happens if someone gets injured?
A:At our school, the staff takes the utmost care to prevent any injuries or accidents.
・ For minor injuries such as abrasions, first aid for disinfection will be provided, but in the case of injuries that the school cannot judge, we will contact the guardian by telephone and come pick up the student.
・ If it is an emergency, an ambulance or school staff will take the child to the hospital, and parents/guardians should immediately come to the hospital.
In the event of an accident or injury, we will contact the guardian by telephone (injuries that require immediate attention), accident reports (visual bruises, bruises, injuries near vital points), and bus reports (schools). Small injuries or accidents that occur: small abrasions and cuts occur frequently 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.
