“Au Pays des Sakuras” is aimed at all families – French-speaking or not – who want their child to develop in a French-speaking environment. The kindergarten works like a “nursery school”: four days a week, the children are welcomed by a team of professionals for activities such as language and song workshops, motor activities, manual activities, and of course… meals, naps and playtime! Everyone’s rhythm is respected.
A qualified pedagogical team
The pedagogical team includes a director, a school teacher and one or two childcare assistants depending on the number of children. The supervision ratio is one adult for a maximum of 7 children.
Our facility can accommodate up to 15 children. Each year, half of the families are of mixed or non-French nationality.
A unique location in Tokyo
“Au Pays des Sakuras” is the only French-speaking facility in Tokyo for children aged 2 to 4.
