Seeking learning opportunities, the students also visited Satsuki Children's Garden, Nagano's first certified childcare center, to deepen their practical childcare skills.
The campus also includes spaces where local families can play together. The wooden deck adjacent to the classrooms is equipped with underfloor heating.
While the students play with the children, parents can relax at the tables and chairs.
