School Supplies
If you have the school supplies they were using in the former kindergarten or daycare, you can continue using them. Make sure that the name is written down on all of their belongings. For the textbooks, please write down the name on the book cover. In addition, please don’t send things that are unnecessary for the classes or the school. If you forget to bring something, that item will be lent by the kindergarten. Please return them to us within 3 days after washing.
What to bring every day
- Backpack
It is recommended to bring a backpack, so that their hands are free. It is preferable to have something that can fit in your locker. Students are instructed to place their belongings on their lap on the school bus. Please be aware that key chains are often lost on the school bus and in the school.

Textbooks, Art Block and Folder
