How can my child maintain their high-level English skills?

Happy Staff • April 11, 2019

On March 20th, 2019 we held our Hisaya International Preschool and Kindergarten Graduation Ceremony.

Our graduates have spent 3 to 4 years on their journey to becoming bilingual . We wish our graduates a successful and bright future at their new schools.

Kindergarten Class in English

One of the benefits of being a Hisaya International Preschool and Kindergarten graduate is that it opens up a wide variety of choices for continuing their education.

Some graduates choose to continue studying at a K - 6 or K - 12 international school and others attend a Japanese elementary school.

When a graduate moves onto a Japanese elementary school, the big question all parents have is " How will my son / daughter maintain their English skills? " At Hisaya International Preschool and Kindergarten, we have a special high level class for pre-school graduates. So students can maintain their high levels of English fluency while attending a Japanese elementary school.

These classes are called Kikoku Courses and are offered during after school hours or 3 - 7 pm, Tuesday - Friday and also a popular Saturday Schoolcourse. These courses are specifically designed for students who already have English experiences and skills.

For more information, please visit our after school program's website at the Happy English Club website.
