EtonHouse Roppongi Preschool

Ages: 15 months to 6 years

Located right next to Tokyo Midtown in a five-story building surrounded by lush parks, EtonHouse Roppongi provides a vibrant international environment. Our rich learning experiences extend beyond the classroom into local nature, art galleries, museums, and shrines.

We are a bilingual school (English and Chinese) and offer extended day care in English.  Our afterschool programme supports the acquisition of English and Chinese.

At EtonHouse Roppongi we are advocates of play as we consider this to be the most natural and effective vehicle for learning. We know that play enables children to gain a sense of self and of the world around them, and to build strong connections with other people and their environment.

We enrich our curriculum through capitalising on the learning opportunities offered beyond the school, including at art galleries and exhibitions, museums, shrines, malls, as well as at the local parks.

At EtonHouse Roppongi we build strong connections with nature and we value the learning that can be gained from regular interactions with natural materials both within and beyond the classroom.

Roppongi Preschool provides a Mandarin and English bilingual environment. Each class has one English-speaking teacher and one Mandarin-speaking teacher, speaking their language to children to ensure language exposure and immersion.

School Leadership

Welcome to EtonHouse International School Tokyo Roppongi. Our dedicated team is committed to cultivating a safe, inquiry-driven, and empowering environment where young learners are inspired to become lifelong learners and confident global citizens.

Allison Banbury

Principal & Head of Tokyo Campuses
EtonHouse International School Tokyo

Allison is passionate about early childhood education and has dedicated her career to working with young learners. For over 25 years she has held senior leadership positions in schools in the UK and in Hong Kong, where she has lived for the past 12 years. Allison joins EtonHouse Japan after a four year tenure as the principal of a large international kindergarten.
She believes that young children should be protagonists of their own learning supported by teachers who intentionally plan engagements and environments that embrace children’s interests; build on their expertise; provoke thinking; and promote learning. She values play as a medium through which children can make sense of their world, and she recognises the importance of giving children time to explore, discover, think and learn. Allison is a team player and knows that working collaboratively builds strong and effective practice across a school. Being in a school with a strong sense of community is very important to her. She understands that a close partnership between home and school can have a profound impact on children’s self identity, sense of belonging and on their learning.
