The graduation ceremony was full of emotion, as children who had been with us since their infancy said goodbye.\u2028Graduates who have moved on to elementary school have started asking, &#8220;Can you create a HAPPY HORIZONS elementary school?&#8221; This sentiment has inspired us to continue nurturing their educational journey.<\/p>\n<p>HAPPY HORIZONS is more than just a school\u2014it&#8217;s a place that feels like a second home. Through project-based learning, children continue to grow and learn in a familiar, supportive environment with teachers they know and trust.<\/p>\n<p>To meet the needs of our graduates and continue supporting their development, HAPPY HORIZONS ACADEMY opened in 2019. In this new phase, we continue to engage children in project-based activities, especially in an English immersion environment.<\/p>\n<p>When children finish a full day of school, they can feel tired and overwhelmed, especially if they are required to follow a strict curriculum during after-school care. At HAPPY HORIZONS ACADEMY, we focus on helping children relax and unwind before engaging them in fun and enriching activities. Rather than focusing on structured tasks, we give children the time they need to rest and recover.<\/p>\n<p>Our after-school program emphasizes activities that children enjoy and can immerse themselves in. We believe that the best learning happens when children are having fun and are excited about what they are doing.<\/p>\n<h3>Why HAPPY HORIZONS Is Chosen<\/h3>\n<p>Here are the main reasons why families choose HAPPY HORIZONS for their after-school care:<br \/>\n\u2022 English is part of the daily environment<br \/>\n\u2022 Children engage in project-based activities that excite and inspire them<br \/>\n\u2022 Outdoor play at nearby parks<br \/>\n\u2022 Management classes where children learn about money and morality<\/p>\n<p>*Teachers speak only English, but there is always support available in Japanese.<\/p>\n<p>Lunch is provided during school holidays, offering peace of mind to parents<\/p>\n<p>Parents are also very pleased that after graduation, their children can return to the nurturing educational environment of HAPPY HORIZONS, ensuring continuity in their growth and development.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q_button_wrap\"><a href=\"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/contact\/\" class=\"q_custom_button q_custom_button3\">Contact us<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After-School Care at HAPPY HORIZONS An Environment Where English Is Part of Daily Life At HAPPY HORIZONS, the  [&hellip;]","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":289,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-tcd-lp.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-127","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=127"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/127\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":845,"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/127\/revisions\/845"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/happy-horizons.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
