About Nursery School

Nursery School―How It Came into Being

Hamanasu Nursery School and Watanoha Nursery School had served the Watanoha district before the 2011 earthquake, but both received such damage that they could no longer provide any service in the district, causing a serious predicament for the children and the parents of the area.

In the meantime, the demand on the part of the municipal government for the general reconstruction of the city was so great that it was impossible to expect them to rebuild nursery schools. We therefore decided to build a privately-run school where young parents could entrust their children. Providing a quality childcare program on the principle of Buddhist philosophy where the children will learn to care about others—this was the foundation of our initiative to build a new nursery school.

The construction of the school building was started in March 2013 and was completed in January 2014. The school officially opened in April of the same year, accepting infants from age zero with a capacity of 75 (maximum 90) children.
