Waseda International School opened its doors last month, providing an ESL kindergarten for children in need of English-language support before joining the main elementary school in September. After-school programs in self-confidence and ESL also began, as well as a Mommy & Me program and Saturday classes. The school is currently offering a Welcome Campaign with discounts for students aged 3 years to 11 years old enrolling in the 2012–13 academic year.
Waseda International School was founded by long-term residents in Japan who are keen to provide members of the international community with high quality international school education that is affordable. The first semester ends next month, but plans are underway for an extensive summer school, starting at just ¥40,000 per week. For more details, see http://wasedais.jp.
