Willowbrook International School offers an engaging and inquiry-based international curriculum designed for early childhood education, catering to children from 1.5 to 5 years old. The school emphasizes a rigorous educational philosophy that prioritizes exploration, creativity, and meaningful learning experiences. They deliver their curriculum through two main programs: the Regular English Program and the Japanese\/English Dual Immersion Program. The Regular Program consists of classes tailored for specific age groups: Kaze (15 months-2 years), Yuki (2-3 years), Tsuki (3-4 years), and Hana (4-5 years). In this program, the instruction is primarily in English with daily Japanese lessons integrated into the schedule. This approach not only serves native English speakers but also children who are learning English as an additional language. The school provides flexible attendance options, allowing parents to choose full-time or part-time enrollment to best fit their family's needs.<\/p>\n\n
The Dual Immersion Program is particularly noteworthy, as it provides a bilingual learning environment where classes alternate between English and Japanese on a regular and predictable schedule. Initiated in 2002, this program has expanded due to its popularity and effectiveness in fostering bilingualism among students. Classes in this program include Yama (Mountain) for 2-3 years, and Matsu (Pine), Matsubokkuri (Pinecone), Take (Bamboo), and Sakura (Cherry Blossom) for mixed-age groups of 3-5 years. This dual approach means that children are immersed in both languages, with instruction delivered in English half of the week and in Japanese the other half. Willowbrook\u2019s philosophy emphasizes the importance of creating an environment that supports bilingual education, with resources and materials thoughtfully prepared to enhance the learning experience.<\/p>\n\n
Willowbrook's educational philosophy is rooted in inquiry-based learning, which positions the teacher as a facilitator rather than the sole source of knowledge. This method encourages children to explore, investigate, and construct their own understanding of the world around them. The curriculum is informed by the research of prominent figures like Jean Piaget and Howard Gardner, focusing on the importance of play and creativity in early childhood development. Furthermore, in 2017, Willowbrook became an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School and began implementing the Primary Years Programme (PYP) framework into its existing curriculum. The PYP emphasizes five essential elements: knowledge, concepts, skills, attitudes, and action, which align seamlessly with Willowbrook\u2019s inquiry-based approach.<\/p>\n\n
Assessment methods at Willowbrook are designed to support continuous learning and development. Teachers employ various strategies to gauge student progress, ensuring that each child is supported in their individual learning journey. The school also values strong communication with parents, keeping them informed about their child\u2019s progress and classroom activities. This collaborative relationship between teachers and parents is integral to the success of both the students and the school community. Overall, Willowbrook International School is dedicated to fostering a warm, nurturing environment where children can thrive, develop essential skills, and prepare for future academic endeavors.<\/p>","extra_curricula_description":"
Student life at Willowbrook International School is vibrant and engaging, centered around an inquiry-based international curriculum that nurtures both academic and personal growth. The school offers two primary programs: the Regular English Program for children aged 1.5 to 5 years old and a Japanese\/English Dual Immersion Program for children aged 2 to 5. The Dual Immersion classes alternate between English and Japanese, allowing students to immerse themselves fully in both languages. This bilingual environment not only supports native English speakers but also assists those learning English as an additional language, making it an ideal choice for families living in Japan or those preparing to return to their home countries.<\/p>\n\n
At Willowbrook, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a strong emphasis on nurturing each child's development.

This collaborative approach enhances the educational experience for students and families alike.<\/p>\n\n
Beyond the regular curriculum, Willowbrook offers a variety of after-school activities designed to extend student learning. The Sora class, which runs from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, is taught by Willowbrook staff and provides students with additional opportunities for exploration and engagement. The school emphasizes creative arts, dance, and teaching through various programs, allowing students to express themselves in innovative ways. The art program is particularly noteworthy, featuring vibrant displays full of color, texture, and energy throughout the school. This multi-sensory learning approach reflects Willowbrook\u2019s commitment to fostering creativity and self-expression among its students.<\/p>\n\n
The culture at Willowbrook International School is characterized by its dedication to creating a nurturing and engaging learning environment. The inquiry-based approach allows children to explore and create their own knowledge, facilitating holistic development while embracing the richness of bilingual education. Clubs, activities, and events encourage not only the enhancement of students\u2019 learning experiences but also promote a sense of community among families. Regular community service activities emphasize the importance of giving back and engaging with the local environment, allowing students to learn the value of service and collaboration. Additionally, performing arts opportunities, including dance, provide students with a platform to showcase their talents and build confidence. Overall, Willowbrook International School stands out as a unique and vibrant educational setting, where students are encouraged to grow, learn, and connect with one another.<\/p>","accommodation_description":"","day_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"","cost_description_day_students":"","boarding_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"","cost_description_boarding_students":"","accreditations":"","enrollment_phase":"","staff_student_ratio":"","health_amp_safety":"","nr_of_nationalities":"","min_number_of_months_enrollment":"","facilities_description":"","name_extra_campus_1":"","description_extra_campus_1":"","address_extra_campus_1":"","yearly_fee_min":"","yearly_fee_max":"","fee_currency":"","scholarship_description":"","online_learning_information":"","online_student_support":"","technology_platform":"","online_community":"","why_choose_reason_1":"Official
