Our History

Driven by a heartfelt desire to foster connections between the Indonesian and Japanese communities and their rich cultures, Mr. Ali Leonardi Nakamura, an individual of both Indonesian and Japanese heritage recognized the need to break down language and cultural barriers. This recognition became the catalyst for a remarkable initiative.

To transform this dream into reality, he decided to establish Nakamura School, a unique educational institution designed to provide Indonesian citizens with a comprehensive understanding of the Japanese language and culture.

In the year 2018, Nakamura School was born, igniting a transformation in the educational landscape. It adopted a distinctive approach by blending elements of the Indonesian Curriculum, international educational standards, and the solid Japanese educational system. The school's holistic approach aimed not only to excel in academic rigor but also to instill a sense of moral responsibility and prioritize personal healthcare.

Nakamura School commenced its educational journey from the earliest stages of a child's life, embracing Early Childhood Education, and extended its influence through Primary and Secondary Schooling. In doing so, it not only imparted knowledge but also nurtured a deep respect for diverse cultures, fostering an environment where Indonesian and Japanese communities could converge and thrive together.

A Holistic Curriculum

Nakamura School adopts the philosophy of Chi-Toku-Tai: a Japanese philosophy that emphasizes three fundamental elements: Chi (Wisdom), Toku (Virtue), and Tai (Body), which in the context of education promotes a holistic approach to learning and personal development.
