Getting Prepared

Evacuation

We believe at Beanstalk that it is important to be prepared for every situation.

Evacuation

One thing that we may face is an earthquake.

Evacuation

Holding evacuation drills helps prepare everyone if said situation arises.

After we make sure it is safe to leave the building we proceed to our evacuation site.

It seems safe, so we head back to school.

And this is how we prepare!

A Visit to Kotobuki-sou for Halloween 2019

Part of our celebration of Halloween at Beanstalk is to visit the residents at Kotobuki-sou and perform in front of them.

We walk around to Kotobuki-sou in groups.

We had lots to get ready this year for Halloween…

It was important to get the right pose for the runway!

We really burned our energy away that day. After all that exercise we needed a rest on the bus ride back to school.

We will be going to Tenpaku park again this month to get some more exercise!
