Exploring the World Together: Making International Friends at School

Exploring the World Together: Making International Friends at Our Preschool

At Hisaya International Preschool and Kindergarten nestled in the heart of Nagoya, Japan, we believe in the power of friendship and the joy of learning together. Today, we want to talk about something truly special: making friends from all over the world and how it helps children understand our big, beautiful world a little bit better.

But why is it so important for children to make friends from different countries? Well, let's think about it this way: when we meet someone from a different place, we get to learn about their customs, traditions, and even taste their favorite snacks! It's like taking a journey without ever leaving the classroom.

One of the most exciting parts of making international friends is learning to communicate in English. English is like a bridge that connects us all, allowing us to share stories, play games, and sing songs together. Even if we speak different languages at home, English helps us understand each other and build lasting friendships.

But it's not just about learning a new language; it's about understanding each other's perspectives and respecting our differences. When children interact with friends from different countries, they learn that there's more than one way to see the world. They become more open-minded, compassionate, and curious about the world around them.

Through play, laughter, and shared experiences, our children develop a global mindset that will stay with them for a lifetime. They learn that no matter where we come from, we are all connected by our shared humanity.

So, the next time you visit our preschool, take a moment to listen to the giggles and chatter in our classrooms. Each voice represents a different corner of the world, coming together to create something truly beautiful: a community built on friendship, understanding, and love.

At Hisaya International Preschool and Kindergarten, we're not just shaping young minds; we're building bridges that span continents and cultures. Together, let's explore the world and celebrate the richness of our diverse community. When we make friends from different countries, we're not just learning about the world; we're creating a brighter future for it.
