UST SUMMER SCHOOL 

日本語
Discover, explore, enjoy!
​Experience a fun-filled learning program that will surely paint an unforgettable picture in your child’s heart.
UST hosts a theme-based summer program. 
Each week, children are exposed to an array of hand-picked activities based on exciting themes, ending the week with a field trip connected to the weekly theme that brings their weeklong learning to life. 
With a maximum of 16 students per class, we ensure a personalized and engaging experience.
During literacy sessions, students are divided into smaller groups based on their academic level to maximize their learning experience. 
Theme-based learning and various science or social studies projects are also accompanied by arts and crafts, cooking, and athletic activities.
Application for Summer School 2026 will begin on March 23, 2026
