KIST will be closed for the winter vacation from Wednesday, December 18, 2024 through Sunday, January 5, 2025. We will be unable to respond to any inquiries received during this period until we re-open on Monday, January 6. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Tours of the school are conducted for families of prospective students to view the facilities available and briefly observe classes in action. General outlines of the school philosophy, curriculum, admissions policies, application procedures and school fees will also be provided. Before attending a school tour, families are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the school by browsing this website and reading the KIST Admissions Handbook.

School tours are conducted on most school days (Monday to Friday only) during the year. Tours may be scheduled in the morning or afternoon and may take approximately 50 minutes to one hour depending on the area/s of the school you wish to view. Tours are not conducted on weekends, during school holidays (as indicated on the School Calendar), or on the days immediately before and after school vacation periods.

Tours are conducted in either English or Japanese. Please choose the language you are best at communicating in.
