LOCATION

WHY WE LOVE AOZORA

Aozora Gakuen (translated as “Blue Skies School” in Japanese) was founded by three mothers in 2012 to fulfill the needs of Brooklyn families looking for a preschool which could provide quality education rooted in Japanese values, morals and spirit. By teaching our children to think globally and embrace diversity, to respect their bodies, their environment and nature, our activities tie directly into the development of the balance between independence and interdependence; self-respect and empathy for others; creativity and collaboration.

  

Watch the video to find out more about why we love Aozora Gakuen so much.
