RSJ offers parents and pupils the ability to choose a boarding option that suits them. Full (7-day) boarders will reside in the new RSJ purpose-built boarding Houses, where they will be looked after 7-days a week and enjoy additional activities as well as the use of the school’s new facilities each evening and over every weekend during term time. Weekly boarders will stay overnight at RSJ in a boarding House from Monday to Friday (5-day boarding), returning to school on a Sunday night. RSJ anticipates this will become a very popular option for busy families in Tokyo and across Japan. |
