Uniforms Introduction
Our school's uniforms are designed by Hanae Mori, a leading figure in the world of fashion (with the exception of our year-round slacks). Our uniform was created out of a hope that students learn to take pride in their appearance from their younger years.
In addition to the formal skirts pictured, there are 3 other options for high school girls: pleated skirts, culottes, and medium-length shorts.

Year-Round
PE Uniform
Our school's PE uniforms are made with recycled polyester. Between 2021 and 2022, a group of students participated voluntarily in a project in which they reviewed the existing PE uniform's material and production processes and designed a new, environmentally sustainable PE uniform. With the support of external companies, they were able to create a new polyester PE uniform that can be recycled over and over again using a "circular economy" framework. When students graduate, their old PE uniforms can be recycled at a factory into new PE uniforms for the next class of students.
Annual Schedule
We have many events throughout the year. As they are held across all grades throughout the school, they are an opportunity for all students to interact and deepen their friendships. We also conduct international exchange with our sister schools, local volunteer activities, and extracurricular learning.
