Sydney Japanese International School

Sydney Japanese International School operates on a single Terrey Hills campus with two divisions. The International Division follows the New South Wales curriculum for Kindergarten to Year 6 and provides daily Japanese language lessons, while the Japanese Division follows the Japanese curriculum for Years 1 to 9 with daily English lessons. The two divisions share facilities and collaborate on visual arts, physical education, music and ICT to support bilingual learning. Language programs include five 45‑minute classes per week taught by native speakers, fostering proficiency in both Japanese and English. The school emphasizes immersion and cross‑cultural language development across both divisions. Facilities include large air‑conditioned classrooms with interactive whiteboards, science laboratories, a dedicated computer room, two art rooms, a music room and a food technology room, plus a library with over 20,000 Japanese and English titles and field facilities for sport. After‑school activities cover Karate, Sado, Gakken, Cheerleading, Multi‑Sports, Guitar, SoroTouch, Soccer, Badminton and Otanoshimi. Established in 1969, the school celebrated 50 years in 2019.
