Message to Preschool Teachers

Truly appreciate the smooth arrangement by Sensei Hitomi and Miki. You really took good care of ours kids and they both said they enjoyed the time at school in Japan. Though, the sudden cancellation on the last day was really a pity and caught us by surprise!(Because there’s even no rain on that day) Communications and photos sent through Line app was instant and effective! Warm and kind staff.

Message to Local People

The accommodation is spacious and fully equipped. But it’s better if the fridge was bigger.(too small for a family staying for a week or more.)
Using PIN code to unlock is convenient. The bike and parking space are also convenient.

Features of the Preschool

Located in northern Gifu, Hida Furukawa is a beautiful town of white-walled storehouses, wooden houses, and calm canals with koi fish. Its friendly people and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect place for families to enjoy traditional Japanese life.

Feature 2

Children spend joyful days surrounded by warm teachers and the beauty of nature. Playing freely in our spacious garden, they grow with kindness and gratitude.

Feature 3

At Masushima Preschool, children learn through play and creativity. The “Creation Corner” inspires imagination, and teachers encourage independence and confidence in a warm, supportive environment.

Each season brings discovery — river play in summer, colorful leaves in autumn, and joyful sledding in winter. Through nature, children learn curiosity, resilience, and appreciation for the changing seasons.
