At Saint Maur International School, learning extends well beyond the classroom, and our students’ recent success at the 2026 Japan History Bee & Bowl National Championships is a strong reflection of that commitment.
At Saint Maur, we know the importance of being a Lifelong Learner, and we are especially passionate about developing Lifelong READERS. On April 23rd, our hallways were transformed into a living library as the Elementary School celebrated World Book Day.
Across cultures and traditions, celebrating milestones and rituals is an significant part of the human experience and it binds families across generations. In schools we have excellent opportunities to pause, reflect and rejoice with students when they reach certain moments in their life that signify change, more responsibility or an entry into sacredness.
The library was the centre of celebration this week as students gathered for a host of Sakura Medal parties, marking their reading achievements this year. From the beautiful seasonal decorations to the lively atmosphere, the space was transformed into a festive hub for readers.
On Saturday, April 11, Saint Maur hosted Robosumo Challenge 2026 in the Cougar Cafe. Robosumo requires students to design, build, code, and test a fully autonomous sumobot, which is then entered into a tournament. Like in real sumo, matches are won by pushing an opponent out of the ring or flipping them onto their side.
The Elementary Student Council (ESSC) recently led a meaningful initiative called “We Love Animals”, which saw students work together to support a local charity, the Kanagawa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (KSPCA).
On Saturday March 14th, three Senior students from Saint Maur International School were invited to attend an International Forum at Yokohama Science Frontier High School.
Following in the tracks of Mr Ito and former graduates, on June 14, a group of ten Grade 10 and Grade 11 students will travel to Cambodia with Ms Cooney and Mr Crespy to partner with Habitat for Humanity and build a home for a vulnerable family over the course of a week.
Saint Maur Students Join the Tournament of Champions at Yale University As some students have noticed, five students were not seen at school for more than a week earlier this month, as they were away to New Haven, Connecticut, in the United States to attend the World Scholar’s Cup Tournament of Champions.
Last week, as part of their Semester 1 excursion, the Grade 11 students visited the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), located in the Nihonbashi district. The first part of the experience was a brief video explaining how the stock market works and how it developed in Japan.
Saint Maur International School is Japan's leading Trinity Music Examination Centre and every year in May, many of our students (in addition to many external candidates) take these qualifications.
