International Fun Day: Okura Kaigan

May 22, 2010 07:08 by janina

Not sure whether the slugs or the ice cream was the highlight. Spot mad boy swimming in his clothes (no he didn't have a change of clothes or a towel!). One of the kids commented, "That's what Bilingual School is all about. We'd never be allowed to do this on a shougakko trip". Hmmmm... Let's hope parents see it as a positive too :-)

On Saturday we went walking on Funday. We were tired after all the walking, but we had a lot of fun. 

We went up hills!

And down hills!



Let's go walking!





Time for a lunch break!



After we all recharged, it was time to walk some more!

 



Are we there yet?!?!




We made it!




Can you see your house?


 

  We had a lot of fun on this thing!


Upper School Orientation

March 24, 2010 01:58 by janina

There are lots of children moving from the lower school to the upper school this April, and we have some new friends who have joined us as new upper school students too. So we had a one day orientation to get to know each other. We had lots of fun and we learned a lot too. Some highlights...

We started with some team building games. Can we all get on the blue tarp as it gets smaller and smaller? Spot the crazy teacher cheerleading the tower building!

 



We had a "make your own sandwich" lunch party. Yum!


We played hide and seek indoors as it was raining too hard to go to the park.

 

Of course, we studied and played word/phonics games.

And we did craft too. Look at our new school window. Read all about us!

 


International Fun Day: Nori and Lego

We went to Fish School down at Tarumi sea front and made nori. Lucky for us, the weather was warm and good. While we were waiting for our nori to dry, we went to the lego shop and played. Good day out.
