Vedruna Mission in the Province of Japan

Since its inception, the Vedruna Province of Japan has been committed to formal and informal education, in line with the charism of St. Joaquina.

Aitoku College, which celebrated its 70th anniversary in 2025, is focused on the education of girls. In Tarumi, there are 2 kindergartens and a coeducational preschool, while it offers elementary, junior high and high school. In Osaka, we have another early childhood education center with kindergarten and preschool.

In our insertion communities in Tottori, Shimada, Matsudo and Taiwan, the sisters actively collaborate with diocesan, parish and other congregations’ educational institutions, contributing our fraternal and educational presence.

Through the JPIC (Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation) Commission, we participate in meetings and events at the national level. In recent years, we have strengthened awareness and commitment in this area, working at both provincial and local levels, wherever we are present.
