Celebrating New Beginnings: Soroban Class Launches in Ofuna

A fresh educational opportunity has emerged in Ofuna with the opening of a new soroban class designed for young learners at FOOD & TIME ISETAN OFUNA. Operated by Seiha Network, this exciting initiative aims to introduce children as young as three years old to the traditional Japanese abacus, fostering essential mathematical skills in a fun and engaging manner.

A Prime Location for Learning

Nestled within the bustling FOOD & TIME ISETAN OFUNA, this new soroban classroom offers incredibly convenient access. Located directly connected to JR Ofuna Station, it's an ideal place for busy families. Parents can easily drop their kids off for class while running errands or shopping, making it a practical choice for working families.

At FOOD & TIME ISETAN, families can observe their children during classes thanks to the large windows that provide a view into the classroom setting. This ensures parents can stay involved and engaged in their child's learning journey.

About the Soroban Class

The soroban class, named “Soroban Class 88-kun”, is set to commence in June, with classes available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Registration will open on April 16, with the first capable students able to enroll into this innovative educational program. As part of the grand opening promotion, the class is waiving the usual entry fee of 11,000 yen, making it an attractive option for families looking to provide their children with yet another enriching learning experience.

For those interested, the initial free trial is a great way to allow children to engage with the soroban before fully committing. You can register for the trial through the official website at Seiha Network.
