「ノースショア日本語学校」はシドニー在住の有志のボランティア（保護者・教員）が、その子ども達の日本語と日本文化の学習・継承を目的に設立しました。子ども達の日本語能力と日本文化理解の両方を促進するため、NSW教育省のCommunity Languages Schools Program規定内のコミュニティー・ランゲージ・スクールです。

海外で日本語を学習する子ども達が、楽しく、且つ有意義に、日本語だけでなく、日本文化だけでなく、その両方の知識を同時に習得できるようカリキュラムを組んでいます。海外での日本語学習の困難を鑑み、生徒の興味や好奇心にこたえるべく、生徒一人ひとりが無理なく、楽しく、自分のレベルに合わせて力を伸ばすことを最優先としています。

North Shore Japanese School was founded (5th of Feb, 2011) by two passionate parent/teacher volunteers who hoped to provide a quality learning opportunity of Japanese language and culture for children living in Sydney. This school is one of the community languages schools guided and funded by the Community Languages Schools Programs (CLSP) of the NSW Department of Education. The school aims to ensure that every child is able to maintain and improve their language and understanding of Japanese culture, here in Sydney.

We understand that they are likely to have difficulties in the maintenance and improvement of Japanese language proficiency and understanding of Japanese culture, due to the reality that our students live outside of Japan. To overcome this, the school aims to provide the best possible teaching that suit each student’s needs, interest and capability of learning. We also ensure to provide our students with an enjoyable learning environment tailored along our school curriculum.
