Angel Kindergarten’s commitment

01Warm Fireplace
In our kindergarten, you can see the big fireplace.
In every November, we will hold the fire ceremony.
When a fire starts to burn, we can feel the inner peace and a feeling of pleasure that filled us with nostalgia.
02Classrooms
The special U-shaped building allows children to go to the playground easily by just crossing the hallway and opening french windows!
Facility
03Natural Building Materials
In Kindergarten, every place you touch, such as desk and chairs that children use were all made by natural materials.
Because, children use the facilities all day long so It’s very important to make sure children are surrounded by the natural material.
Facility
04Embracing the world
Spending time with the foreign teachers, joining our international Friendship program “Hello Friends around the World”, and even our JSL program let children understand the world with diverse people and culture!
“Hello Friends around the World”
05Swimming in warm water!
We have one of the best swimming pool equipment.
Our system for swimming pool sanitation can prevent of diseases in swimming pool. Moreover, children can enjoy clear water because we use diatomaceous earth filter powder for our filter system. This natural, high-grade powder will catch the smallest contaminants that may hurt children’s skin.
06Hop, jump, run!
Our children love to run and exercise in the playground.
Our playground grass for extreme safety provides the best space for children to play barefoot. This playground is also the place for our Athletic Meet of Nursery School.
