CGK’s Autumn School program is designed exclusively for elementary school students😊
The CGK Afterschool Autumn School program conducts classes where students can flex their creativity and have fun in a relaxed and supportive environment whilst pursuing their goal in ways they decide is most interesting to them. We value the children’s independence and provide ample opportunities for them to move their bodies, work on crafts, research, present their work, debate their ideas, share their opinions, and actively try new things!😄
There are no restrictions on the amount of days that can be applied for so please feel free to apply for any days you are interested in!
We look forward to seeing you!

(日本語は英語の後で) We are very happy to share the news that we are officially an IB World School authorized to deliver the Primary Years Program! Becoming an authorized school means we met all the required qualifications to deliver the PYP. Implementing the PYP at CGK has already improved teaching and learning. But this is only the beginning. We will continue to strengthen our teaching approaches and learning. Every year we will identify at least one specific area that we will work to improve as a school as well as individual goals for all staff. Teachers will also continue to receive professional development, either in-service from qualified staff or through official IB workshops. Our goal has always been not just to offer the PYP, MYP, DP, and CP, but to offer the best educational experience possible to all of our students.
We will continue to offer IB information sessions and publish writings about our school and lessons. We continue to work towards achieving our mission to "expand the options for happiness on a global basis." CGK International School

(日本語は英語の後で) Last week, the students in Grade 1 Afterschool class made a model of the Burj Khalifa👏 ✨ It stands at around 180cm tall and it is made out of recycled clear files and PET Bottles🗼 They chose these materials because they mimic the glass facade of the real building. It even lights up at night🌃!
The kids were so excited to see the tower in its final form😆 The children were very proud of how it turned out because they designed and built the tower mostly on their own😊 Mr.Reyes only offered support and guides when they asked for it. To complete this project, the children chose to add lights to their tower, to mimic how the real tower lights up at night. The placement of the lights was also chosen by the students.
For our next part of our project, we have decided to learn more about what life is like in the UAE by having a conversation with people who live there! The students will take part in a cultural exchange virtual meeting with students who live in Dubai. Mr.Reyes is planning to coordinate more of the details with his friend who currently teaches at an IB International School in Dubai😄
On Saturday night CGK Outdoors Club and the Yokohama International Family community held its first night time event - a fireworks party which over 200 people attended😄!

It was a wonderful night and much fun was had by all😊!
On Sunday, we had Park Day our first CGK preschool event for this school year🪁 More than 350 students and family members gathered at Honmoku Sancho Park for some fun class games and friendly conversation 👫 It was also the highlight for Family Week, where we celebrated all families at CGK🎵

(日本語は英語の後で) April 1st marked the official start of the CGK Afterschool Advanced Course. The advanced course is from 18:00-19:30 and available to grade 5 students and through Junior High School (consideration will be given to grade 4 students with advanced English skills)✏️ Our first project is student choice and we have decided to research the origin of the legendary Loch Ness Monster and create a timeline of events with the hypothesis that it is a myth and not a fact🗓 Student choice allows students to follow their own interests and build their research, critical thinking, and debate, and language skills in a way they decide. For more information about the Afterschool Advanced Course please feel free to get in touch😊
(日本語は英語の後で) And in a flash our Celebration of Learning (COL) and graduation ceremony came and gone✨ Over the two events we celebrated the children`s respective learning and growth, which was demonstrated through their performances, songs, and dances that the children helped plan and select😄Throughout all the fun we had to farewell our graduating Sky class as they finish their time at preschool and start the next stage of their lives at elementary school. Thank you to everyone for coming to our COL and graduation ceremony and making it such a great day☺️🌸
(日本語は英語の後で) Last Sunday CGK Outdoors Club held its largest event yet with over 100 people attending😄
The day at Kodomono Nature Park started with a gentle nature walk around the lake and through the forest🌿As we came down the mountain we arrived at the large play area. There, the kids were delighted to enjoy all the activities including a jungle gym, a long slide and lots of things to climb🛝

(日本語は英語の後で) We were excited to have our first family parties since the pandemic😄 The always lovely Primo🇮🇹 Italian restaurant were gracious hosts as some of our students and their families enjoyed a special full course meal🍽 Our CGK students certainly had a great time experiencing the pleasures of eating fine food as well as the joys of sharing a meal with even finer company✨ Thank you to the families who braved the cold to come and to everyone at Primo for helping us organize such a great event😊
(日本語は英語の後で)Last week, what a surprise, the ogres came to CGK👹! The preschool children were learning about Setsubun during their Japanese class, such as the meaning of Setsubu and Ehomaki culture. While we were saying, “Ogres would probably not come because they have all become older brothers and sisters and are being very good,”.... the ogres came into the class‼️ Everyone said loudly “Oni wa soto!” and “Fuku wa uchi!” which they had been practised together! The bean throwing was filled with tears and laughter😂
During the lunch break at the elementary school, the children had a lot of fun with games they came up with😄! The first game was a kind of dodgeball style, where the children threw fake beans at each other’s court. The team that throws the most beans into the other’s court wins. The second game was to put as many beans as possible into the box above the heads of Ms Anna Ogre and Mr Facundo Ogre, who were moving around. Mr Facundo Ogre got more beans in the box than Ms Anna Ogre and lost the game😲
Everyone worked hard together with their friends and the ogres went home👹 We wish you a happy and healthy year!✨
