Elementary School Visit

    Today, there was another highlight of this program: together we visited a local elementary school and received a wonderful hospitality from some hundred students in Grade 6. We had a school lunch, joined their house cleaning, being presented on various Japanese culture subjects, and enjoyed their great performance of singing. It was truly memorable three hours.

Drink All You Can

    There was no special reason, but many gathered together to have a drink in the late evening. The instructor joined it only from the second half. Desmond had his birthday cake, and the party sang for him twice. Quite a few drank more than they do normally, but we are all fine, and enjoyed the experience very much. (It turns out that Desmond’s birthday was the reason of the party, or a fine surprise that every one prepared for him, but only the instructor had not been informed…)

Fourth Blog Entry

    The fourth entry of each blog was updated on time. Please take some time to read it, and you can easily feel the excitement that every one is experiencing every day!

 

Precious Experience

    During the weekend, all students took the Home Stay program and spend two nights in a host family. These were the only two nights that every one had to leave the group and dealt with things by him or herself. As expected, every one had a wonderful experience, and obtained a strong confidence through this short time. Here are only a few photos from those who had the time to share with the group.

Home Stay

    This is the weekend for a short homestay. All students found their host family and stay for two nights. Need less to say, all are nervous, and excited at the same time. This will be a truly precious experience!
