About this school
Kaohsiung Japanese School is an overseas Japanese school founded in 1969 for the children of Japanese families living in southern Taiwan. It teaches the Japanese national curriculum in Japanese at elementary and junior high school levels, and its educational goal centres on helping each child shine as they look to the future, with a motto calling for resilient, thoughtful and caring children.
The school occupies one of the five buildings of Zhongzheng Elementary School, a local Taiwanese school in Lingya District, and both schools run their own programmes side by side. Daily contact and planned exchange activities with Taiwanese pupils give students regular exposure to Chinese and local culture. Junior high students also take part in career education talks.
