School Preparatory School for Foreign Children
In cooperation with the Komaki International Association, Sumitomo Riko offers a "School Preparatory School (Preschool)" for children with foreign roots living in Komaki City, Aichi Prefecture, who are about to enter elementary school.
This is a preparatory school for preschool children with foreign parents, teaching them how to read and write Japanese and the rules of elementary school life so that they can quickly adapt to life at a Japanese elementary school. Classes are conducted by citizen volunteers, who learn how to teach and prepare teaching materials at instructor training courses held during the summer and winter.
Forty-five children participated in this school, the 14th of its kind in fiscal 2023.
In order to contribute to the children's happy school life and healthy growth, Sumitomo Riko will continue to implement this activity that will bring smiles to the children's faces.
