Tokyo International School Kindergarten \/ Afterschool<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speech Contest 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n


At last year\u2019s Speech Contest, speech themes were set for each grade level, allowing us to experience the children\u2019s imagination, sensitivity, and thinking skills in a deep and wide-ranging way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All participants fully demonstrated an essential skill that will surely be needed in society: the ability to put intangible thoughts and ideas into words and communicate them to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


For this fourth contest, we have once again set different speech themes for each grade level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you look back on your experiences so far and turn your eyes toward the future, please share the thoughts and feelings you have right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
