Hello. I am Japanese, but currently live in Canada. Our family is considering a move to Geneva. Our daughter (8) needs pre-professional dance program. My other daughter (5) needs competitive swim program. They also attend IB world school here, and I want to keep them in IB if I can. I want to be able to shop and eat Japanese things, and also would like to meet Japanese people. I'd love to send kids to Japanese language school if there is one. If anyone know anything about these topics, please let me know. I'd very much appreciate it!

Hello,
there is an IB school here called 'Ecolint' for short -- Ecole International -- and they have IB programs in English and in French. There are also pre-prof dance programs and there are professional dance troupes for talented dancers. For the swim programs, I think there are quite a few of them. There are also special schools for the children of Japanese nationals who want instruction in Japanese for their kids.
