Welcome to <\/em><\/strong>Beyondia International School Kashiwanoha<\/strong><\/em><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Where curiosity leads, and learning begins.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At our international preschool, children grow through play, inquiry, and English immersion.
As a candidate school for the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP)<\/a>, we nurture global-minded learners who think, feel, and express freely in a warm, diverse environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President\u2019s Message<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Kurihara Gakuen Group, which operates Beyondia International School, upholds the educational philosophy of cultivating creative human capital who can think, act and leverage globally.
In Tokyo, we currently operate three preschools located in Ikebukuro, Meguro, and Mita, the latter of which opened in October 2025.
Our Kashiwanoha campus was established in September 2022.
This facility is a certified private childcare institution that meets the standards set by Kashiwa City.
At Beyondia, children engage in a wide range of English-based activities led by teachers from diverse international backgrounds, together with a comprehensive childcare curriculum developed by qualified Japanese teachers. Through diverse experiences and meaningful interactions, we aim to nurture each child\u2019s social development, independence, and curiosity for learning.
As a preschool that embraces a multilingual environment, we work closely with families to support each child\u2019s growth and development. We sincerely look forward to welcoming new families who share our educational philosophy and to growing together with your precious children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Principal\u2019s Message<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Beyondia International School Kashiwanoha, we believe that every child is born with a natural sense of curiosity and an innate joy of learning.
Since opening our doors in September 2022, our school is now proudly entering its fourth year. We are deeply grateful to see our community growing steadily and to witness the Beyondia approach to learning continue to flourish.
As a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP), we are committed to creating a warm, safe, and nurturing environment where children can play freely, explore with curiosity, and express themselves confidently and authentically.
We believe that early childhood is not only a time for acquiring knowledge, but also a crucial period for developing an eagerness to explore\u2014an inner drive to say \u201cI want to try\u201d and \u201cI want to know.\u201d Through daily experiences, we strive to nurture children\u2019s compassion for others, their ability to ask meaningful questions, and their curiosity about the wider world.
We also believe that this growth is made possible through the collective support of everyone involved\u2014our children, their families, our staff, and the wider community\u2014working together as one team to create a truly enriching learning journey.
We look forward to continuing this wonderful journey of discovery and growth together with all of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
