Beanstalk School Life

A new school year means opportunities to try new things.

Today, the new Robby Rabbit students tried gym class for the first time!

They did so well getting changed all by themselves for the first time and putting away their clothes.

Everyone loved stretching and bending with their gym teacher.

We are already looking forward to our next gym class.

Today was a great day to kick off the new school year 2022.

We were new to everything, but that didn’t stop us from having a good time.

Because our wonderful teachers helped us in completing our tasks.

Then we had a nice day at the park and in our lovely garden with our old and new friends.

We’re looking forward to having a great time and learning new things!

What a beautiful day for a tea party!

First, we made our own tiered trays to pile with sweets and sandwiches.

After decorating our cupcakes and making the jelly… it was finally time to eat.

Please pay special attention to our fancy flower hats.

An enjoyable time was had by all, and it was the perfect way to welcome spring.

Our theme at Spring School this year is diversity, and that means much more than where we are from or the color of our hair.

We were so lucky to have two Japanese Sign Language speakers come to Beanstalk and share their knowledge and experience with us.

Everyone really enjoyed learning how to speak only using their hands!

It was a lot of fun guessing what each sign meant and then signing along.

A hearty congratulations to all our children who are about to start a new chapter of their lives.

What better way to begin than with a big smile!

Thank you to the world class airline pilot Mr. Yoshihiro Muroya for brightening up our day.

Good luck to everyone!

What an exciting field trip to Toyota Stadium today!

We got to see the field, seats, locker rooms, and more!

It was so much fun to kick the soccer ball in the warm up room just like a real professional soccer player!

After our visit to the stadium, we enjoyed a Japanese style Hanami picnic lunch at Kuragaike Park.

What a lovely day to have a picnic under the cherry blossoms.

It’s so important and fun to learn about different countries and cultures around the world!

By learning how people are different than us, we can gain a better appreciation of the world we live in.

Who knows, our Beanstalk students might just even travel to these countries some day!

We had a great time on our field trip today!

Everyone woke up bright and early to ride the bus together from Beanstalk.

Our first stop was The World Children’s Art Musem In Okazaki, where the teachers there helped us make cool sponge sculptures.

Next, we took advantage of the good weather and made a stop at Higashi Park to enjoy a picnic lunch of curry- yum!

We even made some big new friends along the way.

One of our theme for this years Spring School is self affirmation.

Playing soccer encourages good sportsmanship and one’s love for sports.

Complimenting our children and acknowledging their effort is a big confidence booster.

No matter how insignificant or small.

Today we really enjoyed playing soccer with Mr. Hiroshi and our friends on a beautiful sunny day.

We are a great soccer team!
