[Recommended for Summer Research Projects] Applications Open for 'Summer Kids Class' Experiential Programs at the Hotel

Kobe Portopia Hotel (Chuo-ku, Kobe; General Manager: Tsuyoshi Ito) will hold the 'Summer Kids Class' from July 20 (Mon/Holiday) to August 20 (Thu), 2026. This event aims to stimulate children's curiosity and nurture their future dreams through various experiential programs. In addition to classes suitable for summer research projects and crafts, we offer unique hotel-based programs such as table etiquette courses taught by hotel staff and cake-making classes led by pastry chefs.

Furthermore, this year's lineup includes programs to learn about 'air and land transportation on Port Island,' such as an airport guide tour and aviation class commemorating the 20th anniversary of Kobe Airport, and a rare opportunity to visit the Portliner vehicle depot and experience the car wash machine. We have also enriched our learning opportunities through regional partnerships, including a guide tour and animal care experience with zookeepers from Kobe Animal Kingdom, and a science class by Konan University, which has a campus on Port Island. We are offering over 20 programs that serve as special learning opportunities not usually available, which can also be used as subjects for summer research projects.

At Portopia Hotel, we will continue to provide fulfilling learning environments that spark children's curiosity and serve as a catalyst for nurturing their future dreams through diverse experiences that transcend subject boundaries.
