For  2 to 12 year olds. The Tagami kindergarten (established by educational foundation Nagayoshi school) aimed at making it a kindergarten for mastering English and the Kagoshima English vocational school had over 30 years, evolved into an international school providing an English education with preschool and elementary programs. The “International School” conducts early childhood education instruction based on a well-designed curriculum in both English and Japanese. Children acquire Japanese and English while they master the fundamentals through play, book/story telling, nursery rhymes, music, craft, arts, gymnastics and so forth in daily kindergarten activities. Perfect Pitch Education is implemented in early education based on the concept that it is important for children to develop the perfect pitch in listening skills for listening comprehension.
