Lifetime of Learning
Join our Canadian preschool teacher, and our Japanese English speaking hoikushi teacher as your child takes their first steps in a lifetime of learning. It’s a preview to the fun of our everyday Kindergarten as children gradually learn how to be part of an English speaking classroom in our fun-based introduction to Kindergarten.
Whether you're planning for your child to enter our five-day Kindergarten program at age 3 or 4, our two-day afterschool program at age 4, or full-time international school, KOBILS preschool gives your child a fun and relaxing introduction to life in an English immersion Kindergarten.

Complete Program
The 3-day preschool is the start of an English learning adventure which takes your child from aged 2 - junior high school and beyond. Each one of KOBILS programs is carefully designed to complement the next one, so your child will be building and improving English skills and having fun throughout their school career. Please refer to our 5 day Kindergarten and after-school Kindergarten pages for more details of next-step programs.
What's KOBILS Preschool?
Lots of learning, lots of fun: Arts, crafts, life skills, singing, rhythm, vocabulary, outside play, pre-writing and reading, fun fun fun!.
Small group, team taught
Up to eight children with two qualified teachers (one Canadian, one Japanese) means lots of individual care and lots of language opportunities.
International
British owned, internationally staffed. The program is developed by the international teachers with Japanese support; so it's English in English, not Japanese English or translated Japanese.
Community connections, school trips, festival fun
We go out to parks, visit our friends at Shiawase kazoku and enjoy lots of parties.
Main Kindy Visits
Wednesday lunchtime and for special activities, we'll hang out with the Kindergartners.
