School visit program

Students are invited to visit the Embassy of Canada to Japan. Our program allows young people to experience Canada without leaving Japan and to increase their understanding of Canada by visiting Embassy facilities and meeting Embassy staff. Our goal is to encourage the younger generation to contribute to the Canada-Japan relationship of the future.

Student groups can take a self-guided tour. Groups of at least 10 can also request a staff presentation on Canada with a short question and answer session, held in the Library. Total tour time is about 1 hour.

Elementary and junior high school students must be accompanied by a leader responsible for the group. The leader must accompany the students at all times.
