[IKE15-32]Enrollment in Japanese Schools: Children born between April 2, 2009 and April 1, 2010 enroll in elementary school in April 2016. In September, a guide to school enrollment will be sent to homes with non-Japanese children. Please complete the paperwork at the city hall or ward office near you. If you don’t receive the guidebook, please inquire at the city hall or ward office. Homes with Japanese children receive the enrollment notice in October. No paperwork is necessary in this case. Please confirm dates for a medical examination and the orientation to be held before enrollment.
