Detail InformationEdit

Canadian Academy (CA), founded in 1913, is an independent pre-K–12 international school in Kobe, Japan on the man-made Rokko Island; more than 35 nationalities are represented in its student body. Prior to its move to Rokko Island, the school was located in Nagamine-dai, a residential area located below Mt. Maya and Mt. Rokko and overlooking the city of Kobe, for many decades.
The school is accredited by the US-based Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Council of International Schools (CIS), and is certified to award both International Baccalaureate and US high school diplomas. CA has implemented the IBO Primary Years Program (PYP). and Middle Years Program (MYP). The curriculum is in English.
CA is a member of the Asia Pacific Activities Conference (APAC). The school’s sports teams and arts groups send students to annual tournaments and festivals in coordination with other international schools from China, Hong Kong, Korea and the Philippines and participate in the Western Japan Athletics Association. CA is the alma mater of Jovan Yamagishi, a professional soccer player who has spent time with teams in Uruguay and Norway, Taizo Sugitani, a member of the Japanese Olympic Equestrian team, guitarist Ellen McIlwaine, singer Jon Levy, and Hong Kong Cantopop singer and actress Kelly Chen.
Canadian Academy has embarked on a major expansion of its present facilities, the first since it moved to its current campus. The Early Learning and Activities Center was dedicated in January 2008. “ELAC” (as it is called for short) contains special classrooms for 2- to 5-year-olds on the first floor. On the second floor are a second gymnasium, the P&G Black Box Theater, as well as a professional quality recording studio — facilities serving the entire school.
The elementary school’s integration of technology into the classroom has been emphasized in recent years. Canadian Academy provides a great student-to-computer ratio, offering Macintosh computers as a platform to synthesize curriculum and technology.
