It looks like a nursery school is being built in Satonaka-cho near Naruo・Mukogawajoshidai-mae Station.
Here↓
The construction period is listed as lasting until February 28, Reiwa 7, so perhaps it will open the following April.
On the map, it’s around here↓
The address written on the construction sign is 1-chome 144-5 Satonaka-cho, Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture (lot number).
(It will likely be finalized at a later date.)
Area Around the Nursery School
Across the street is the elevated Hanshin Railway line, and underneath it is the Mukogawa Women’s University Station Campus Annex.
If you go this way, you’ll find Kotobuki Park and Cafe Yaotei, and it leads out to the Old National Route.
If you go this way along the elevated Hanshin Railway line, you’ll come out onto the Ozone Line.
Lastly
This nursery school appears to be operated by the social welfare corporation Tokuwakai. Tokuwakai is also planning to open a small-scale nursery school called “Mukogawa Keiai Nursery School Koshien Keyaki Promenade” in the same Satonaka-cho area in April 2023, and this new nursery school will apparently also serve as a place for children to move on to after graduating from the small-scale nursery. It’s reassuring to know there’s already a place lined up for them to continue, isn’t it? 😊
