Hiroshima Saniku Gakuin

The school is comprised of a Junior High school, a Senior High school, and an Elementary school. It is owned and operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and is part of a nation-wide system of Adventist schools. Other SDA schools in Japan include: 5 kindergartens, 10 elementary schools, 2 junior high schools, and one college. These schools are part of a world-wide system of schools operated by the church - the largest Protestant education system in the world. Hiroshima Saniku Gakuin offers a unique style of student life, partly because it is a boarding institution with students coming from all over Japan, from Hokkaido to Okinawa, and partly because it remains small enough (approx. 310 students) to retain something of a family atmosphere. As well as promoting academic excellence, Hiroshima Saniku Gakuin encourages its students to participate in the physical, social and spiritual elements of life which combine to make up a balanced education. Hiroshima Saniku Gakuin is also accredited by the Prefectural Board of Education as a school catering for Japanese returnees, providing them with a smooth transition back to a Japanese educational system.
