Sydney Japanese International School (SJIS)

Welcome to Sydney Japanese International School

Welcome to the Sydney Japanese International School (SJIS) – a little piece of Japan set within the leafy suburb of Terry Hills in Sydney’s beautiful Northern Beaches.

Founded in 1969, SJIS is an independent school where students can immerse themselves in Japanese language and culture while either studying the New South Wales or Japanese Ministry of Education curriculum.

International Division: Our experienced teachers offer the New South Wales curriculum from Kindergarten up to Year 6. In this stream, students also have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Japanese culture and language with daily Japanese lessons.

Japanese Division: At SJIS, we offer the Japanese curriculum stream mainly to students with a Japanese background from Year 1 up to Year 9, complemented by daily English language lessons. The Japanese curriculum is delivered by MEXT (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) teachers and gives students a wonderful opportunity to access Japanese curriculum experts in Australia.

The best of both worlds
Both the Japanese and International Divisions come together for a selection of subjects and activities where language is not a barrier, such as music, visual art, PE and coding. All students have the opportunity to learn to read, speak and write Japanese and English and deepen their understanding of Japanese culture, in Japanese, while living in Australia.

Small community, large school family

Children feel at home in our bright, friendly atmosphere and welcoming community. Our school is a place where parents and teachers care about children’s education. Everyone is invested in helping students develop a love of learning so they can flourish.

With a large oval and spacious outdoor play areas, children love coming to SJIS every day, and with special cultural activities like sports day, language festivals and concerts, they really have a life-shaping time with us at the school.

Our students develop global perspectives through their everyday experiences both in and outside of the classroom and emerge from their time at SJIS as bilingual scholars, ready to embrace learning at high school. They learn about other cultures and appreciate diversity, while gaining a different perspective of the world.

Our teachers nurture students who understand both Australian and Japanese culture – thriving future global leaders who can serve as a ‘bridge’ or ‘kakehashi’ between the two countries.
