Philosophy

At Ohana International Preschool Tokyo we:

Respect the fact that all children are individuals.

Aim to nurture each child’s unique individuality and honor their differences.

Ensure that every child in our care is valued, respected, and given the opportunity to take responsibility for their own learning.

Aim to support the learning, development and well-being of young children.

Promote learning, not only for children but also for everyone associated with our International preschool in Tokyo.

Believe that parents and family are the most important people in children’s lives, and the biggest influence on their learning.

See our role as supporting the relationship between each child and his or her family by working in partnership with parents and families. We exist simultaneously and need to work together in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for us all.

Believe very strongly that we are part of a greater community which includes the children, their families, the neighborhood, the city we live in and the places that we come from.

Believe that we are part of a global community and can all make a difference in protecting our Earth, taking care of the environment and making the world a better place for everybody.

Are proud of our goals, guidelines, and commitment to Early Childhood Education; the future of the children in our care and the future of the global community that we are all a part of.
