Soccer lesson day.

Playing outdoors can increase children’s mental and physical health.

We’ve had good weather for playing outdoors, especially on our soccer class day.

While we are cautious about the pandemic situation, our soccer teacher still made our class fun by using cones and goal nets to avoid physical contact.

Everyone had lots of fun

Moon Viewing.

As we say goodbye to the sunny days of summer, it’s time to turn our attention towards the moon.

Here in Japan, the moon is particularly bright and beautiful during the autumn months, when people gather to celebrate autumn harvests and take part in Tsukimi (“Moon Viewing”) events.

Today we celebrated by taking photos with a beautiful flower bouquet, made crafts and ate delicious dango.

Earthquake.

Earthquake drills’ purpose is to help students (and staff) learn how to react immediately and appropriately.

The essential components of earthquake drills are classroom discussions, demonstrations, and exercises designed to help students learn and practice where to seek shelter and how to protect their heads and bodies from objects.

Our kids did a great job at listening attentively to the discussions.
