The “Guidance letter for entering school（SHUGAKU ANNAI）” is sent out by the municipal office to those applicants who have a child of foreign nationality. The child can enter a Japanese public school by requesting entry at a local board of education or the municipal office. If the child is a Japanese national, these procedures are not required. The school attendance notice（SHUGAKU TSUUCHI）will be sent by the municipal office. In addition, please make sure to get a health checkup and attend a new student orientation before entrance.

日本国籍の場合は上記の手続きは不要です。小学校の「就学通知」送られてきます。
入学前の健康診断や説明会には、必ず出席してください。
