What does our Week Without Walls look like? In close vicinity to rivers, lakes, oceans and the mountains, the week provides an environment for challenging but safe risk-taking. This is an opportunity for our middle and high school students to discover hidden strengths and develop skills that will last a lifetime.

Week Without Walls trips take place throughout the year at locations across Japan, and are an excellent way for classmates to build lasting friendships and shared memories, while immersing themselves in the picturesque beauty that Japan has to offer!

Over the course of each trip, students are encouraged to embrace a sense of curiosity towards and engagement with the world around them. And in doing so alongside their peers, students build meaningful connections and form memories that will last a lifetime. These beloved trips inspire confidence, teamwork, and the capability to take on unfamiliar situations.
