Kitty International School and Preschool

We are a preschool & kindergarten where children come to learn in an English environment and build a strong foundation for life through intellectual education, physical education, music, fine arts, and learning life skills. We created a place to obtain these necessary experiences while keeping in consideration a student's home environment, developmental stages, situations, as well as their individual feelings.

Kitty International School offers classes for a wide range of ages starting with our Kira-Kira lessons for mothers and babies through advanced high school discussion-based classes.

Our teachers are from countries around the world including the United States, England, Australia and more! We have chosen them for their love of sharing English and teaching.

The Preschool Program is a multi-age program for children of 1 to 3 years of age. The Kindergarten Program is also a multi-age program for children of 3 to 6 years of age. Preschool students and Kindergarten students do some activities together such as morning greetings, sing songs, dancing, etc. And we do other activities in each small group separately such as science, arts and crafts, writing, worksheet study, P.E. etc.

School starts at 9:00-9:30, allowing time for the students to arrive. School finishes at 15:00-17:00 when the parents collect their children. Kindergarten students attend 5 days per week. Preschool students can choose 1-5 days per week. One native English teacher and one native Japanese teacher for 10-25 students, depending on the students' ages.

Students can relax and settle in with the teacher and classmates by playing together and at the same time learn vocabulary. It is a relaxed and fun setting including popular background music.

Along with the clean up song, everybody works together to clean up the toys they used during playtime. Students learn to work as a team to get the work done faster and enjoyably. Everybody gathers together in the centre of the room to sing and dance to the “Hello Song”, and two songs of focus for the month. We also have a unique rythmique series of songs that students learn to sing and perform actions simultaneously.

Students learn to play together, playing in group and team games. This includes hide and seek, musical chairs and more!
