Tanabata Festival

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are excited to announce that our school will be celebrating Tanabata (Star Festival) on Monday, July 7th! This special day is a wonderful opportunity for the children to learn about and enjoy a beautiful Japanese tradition.
As part of the celebration, we kindly request that your child come to school wearing a yukata (light summer kimono). Wearing a yukata helps make the day more festive and provides a memorable cultural experience for the children.
Throughout the day, we will enjoy traditional decorations, crafts, storytelling, and songs related to Tanabata. It will be a joyful and enriching event for everyone!
Thank you for your support and cooperation. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.

Drop-Off Procedure – Front Door Only

Dear Parents and Guardians,

For the safety and smooth operation of our daily routine, we kindly request that all children be dropped off at the front door only starting Monday, June 23, 2025.

Our staff will be present at the gate during drop-off hours to warmly welcome your child and escort them safely in the school.

Why this change?
– To ensure the safety and security of all children.
– To minimize congestion and maintain a calm start to the day.
– To help foster independence in our students.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in helping us maintain a safe and efficient environment for everyone.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the preschool office.
