About MEES International School

At MEES International School in Tokyo, we believe children learn best when their curiosity leads the way. Established in 2016, MEES launched its Elementary program in September 2021, growing into a boutique international school that blends Montessori and Reggio Emilia practices in our Preschool with Project-Based Learning (PBL) at the heart of our Elementary program. Our learning environment encourages exploration, creativity, and inquiry. Preschool students build independence and imagination through open-ended materials and child-led projects, while Elementary students engage in real-world, hands-on challenges that help them develop confidence, collaboration skills, and a deeper understanding of the world around them. Beyond our campuses in Hakusan and Sendagi, students also learn in our two privately owned forest locations in Chiba: unique annex learning spaces where nature becomes the classroom. These outdoor environments support ecological awareness, problem-solving, and meaningful connection to the natural world. Across all programs, we integrate STEM, design thinking, and digital literacy, with each elementary student using a personal iPad to support research, collaboration, and creation. At MEES, we nurture curious thinkers, creative makers, and confident learners, children who are ready to thrive in a rapidly changing global society.
