Selecting the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make, and choosing a boarding school can add another layer of complexity. Yet, year after year, boarding education is becoming an increasingly popular choice for families worldwide. But why is that?
We invite you to join an informative webinar hosted by our Director of Boarding, Charlotte Resuggan, where she will explore the numerous advantages of a full boarding education, particularly for young adolescents. With a diverse community of over 300 students from 27 countries, Harrow International School Appi Japan offers a truly global environment enriched by local Japanese culture. Here, students not only build character, resilience, and independence but also forge lifelong friendships.
You will also hear from School Counsellor, Joanne Wright, who will discuss what it’s like for both parents and students transitioning to full boarding, the support students receive and answering common questions frequently asked by parents of first time boarders.
Learn how Harrow Appi’s boarding school experience can nurture your child’s independence while offering a holistic, world-class education to a high standard. We look forward to providing you with valuable insights, answering your questions, and helping you discover the transformative opportunities boarding school can offer.
