School bus usage information
Notes on using school buses
Use of the school bus is limited to those who have applied to use the bus.
Passengers can only board and disembark on the route and at the stops they have applied for.
It cannot be used on an individual basis, such as when participating in a rescheduled event or only when it rains.
If you are riding the bus, please make sure to attach a reflective bus label to your school bag. (Bus reflective label fee: 1,100 yen (tax included))
Our club uses bus cards to manage your boarding status on the day. Please be sure to bring your bus card with you on the day, and if you forget or lose it, please let us know immediately.
When using the school bus, please be sure to understand the following precautions and inform your child of them.
Please be sure to understand the following points and inform your child accordingly.

Notes and Guidance for Parents

Please be sure to wait at the drop-off side when picking up your child.
(If you wait on the opposite side of the bus, your child may run out onto the roadway, either in front of or behind the bus, which is extremely dangerous.) -
Parents may only ride with children on the infant course.
Parents of infants enrolled in the infant and children's classes are not permitted to ride along with their children. -
In the event of unavoidable reasons (bad weather, breakdowns, road conditions, etc.) a service suspension will be announced on our website, in app notifications and by email.
