Fees and what each is for
- Registration
- Covers the enrollment file and holds a place in a room.
- Materials
- Covers art supplies, paper, clay and the picture books we replace through the year.
- Festival days
- Covers the food and craft materials for the seasonal days families share at school.
Which language leads which part of the day is how we plan it, not a promise of what a child will say. Children take a new language at their own pace.

Choosing a schedule
Mornings, three mornings or the school day
Mornings
Five mornings a week from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., with the Japanese circle, snack, craft and outdoor time. Children go home before lunch.
Three mornings
For the twos room only: three mornings a week at the same hours. It suits a child who is new to being away from home.
School day
Five days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., adding lunch from home, rest and an English-led afternoon of stories and quiet work.
