General Information
I Overview of the School
Sapporo Elementary School is located in Ainosato which is northeast of the urban district of Sapporo City.? Sapporo has a population of 1.93 million people.? The school moved to Ainosato from the previous Moiwa campus in 1989.? We have an elementary school, a junior high school, and a university on the same campus that enables us to collaborate, cooperate, and research among the three schools easily.The school has two classes in each 1st to 6th grades, and 3 classes for children with special needs.? The total number of pupils is 438 as of May 1st, 2013.
The pupils attend school from all over Sapporo.? About 90% of them use buses, subways, JR electric trains and city tramcars on their way to and from school.? It is a good opportunity to develop social skills through commuting a long way to school by public transportation, though it is sometimes a challenging task for children.
