Go for the gold!

Happy Staff • October 31, 2019
Here at Hisaya International Preschool we love special events - a chance to socialize, have fun, and see just how much all of our kids have grown and improved during the school year.

Once a year in autumn we hold a sports day, where the whole school (and parents) can come together to enjoy lots of fun events:
  • relay races
  • obstacle courses
  • dance routines
  • ball games
  • parent and child team games
Sports Day at Nagoya Preschool
These events are always great fun, but they are also a chance to learn about team work, sharing, and to use those communication skills we are working on in the classroom!

Physical activity is also really important for every child's mental health and self-confidence. Want to know more about physical activities at Hisaya International Preschool? Click here.
