About Christopher Kodomoen

Core Philosophy

Based on Christian principles: "To feel protected, loved, and trusted, and to become someone who can love others and create peace."

Educational Philosophy

With the foundational Christian principle of "Love Thy Neighbour" at its core, and a secure environment and relationships as a foundation, we support each individual to become the main character of their own story through encountering many wonders and inspirations, engaging in immersive play, and experiencing the joy of exploration both alone and with others. We also support children in discovering their own strengths through rich experiences, expanding their interests to the world around them, and nurturing the ability to express and engage in love.

Our Mission Statement

Love of God
We value life, take actions with love and conviction, and make a positive impact on the world.
Love of Others
We value others with the same compassion and care we have for ourselves, and create a community that supports one another.
Love of Inquiry
We embrace curiosity and creativity, challenging ourselves in various ways, and broadening our horizons while learning together.
