Our Staff
Our Summer Program staff consists of a mix of Canadian Academy
faculty, veteran summer school staff, college and high school
students, and some student volunteers. With unique personalities,
backgrounds and talents, they are placed according to the position
that best fits their experience and knowledge. Over 75% of our staff
is CPR certified, others trained in CPR/First Aid, and our low studentstaff ratio allows constant supervision to provide a safe environment to
enhance involvement and learning.
Our Location
Canadian Academy is conveniently located on Rokko Island, an
artificial island in the port city of Kobe, Japan. Please visit the Rokko
Island City site for information on our school’s immediate environment.
Our Facility
Most Middle and High school courses will be held in the main building,
and almost all classes for Elementary students will be held in ELAC
(Early Learning and Activities Center). Facilities including the cafeteria,
computer labs, main theater, P&G Black Box Theater, studios, Lilly Field
Nestle Field and gymnasiums will be shared by all.
Accommodation
Students and their families traveling from afar can receive
special discount from Hotel Plaza Kobe. Please ask for more detail.
