Although the Kobe Bay Sheraton and Plaza Kobe hotels are very close to CA, they book up fast and can be expensive. Many visitors prefer to stay in hotels in the Sannomiya area of Kobe, with many more food and entertainment options.
Travel time to Sannomiya is about 25-30 mins on the convenient JR line and Rokko Liner.

We're sorry. The form you requested is not active at this time.

Professional Learning at Canadian Academy is rich and varied, focused on improving student learning and inspiring creative inquiry. Teachers at CA are actively involved in weekly PD sessions (students leave early on Wednesdays), including working towards school goals, collaborative planning, assessment, reflection, using student data and more.

Teachers' annual goals are based around their self-directed Tankyuu teacher inquiry projects, which take many forms. Our teachers are encouraged to lead learning through Teachers Teaching Teachers sessions, and supported to become workshop leaders, school visitors and presenters.
