    [For Current Students | Information Sessions on Feb 14–15] Limited to 5 Families per Week (July–August 2026): Discover an Overseas Summer Program that Nurtures Growth in Mind and Body

In partnership with Ryugaku Johokan Co., Ltd., we are pleased to offer a special parent-and-child program exclusively for current students of Tokyo International School Kindergarten / After School. In summer 2026, programs will be held in four countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. All destinations are known for their high educational standards. Whether it’s a first overseas experience or a challenge in a fully immersive English environment, we offer age-appropriate programs to suit each child’s goals and readiness. As in previous years, classmates will include local students and children of similar ages from around the world.

This is a summer where children don’t just learn English—they use it to grow.A truly special opportunity to put the global skills cultivated at Tokyo International School into practice. Beyond language learning, children will actively apply the wide range of global skills they have been developing at Tokyo International School Kindergarten / After School—an invaluable chance for holistic growth, both mentally and physically.
