Kiryu University Junior High School and Kiryu Daiichi High School, Secondary education institution in Kiryū, Japan
Kiryu University Junior High School and Kiryu Daiichi High School is a combined secondary institution in Kiryū where younger and older students learn together in one location. The school offers regular academic classes alongside specialized programs in confectionery and culinary arts, where students practice cooking and baking techniques in equipped kitchen spaces.
The school was established following Japan's post-war educational reforms, when the country restructured its schooling system. It combines traditional Japanese teaching approaches with modern methods that have developed over the decades.
The school hosts the annual Kirameki-Sai festival, where students display their work and showcase what they learn throughout the year to families and neighbors. This celebration reflects how the school connects with the surrounding community through shared activities.
The school is located in Kiryū, a city with public transportation connections that make reaching it straightforward. The grounds are most accessible during public events and festivals when visitors are welcome to attend.
Culinary students produce and sell their own Christmas cakes to the public during the winter season. This hands-on project gives them real experience in food production and sales while applying what they learn in practical settings.
