K2 Special Experiences (Part 2)

After Marathon, we had a fun time together.

We also had a great time grooming and riding the horses at AMICUS.

Also, students came in their unique and creative hairstyles.

It is really nice to see our students learning, exploring and experiencing various activities. Keep smiling everyone.

K1 Valentines

K1s really love their friends. To show our friendship, we learned about the story of St. Valentine, learned Valentines words and then made hearts and Valentines poems for each other. We hope your family had a special Valentines Day as well!

Mango is very popular in Okinawa. However, Philippine mango is a different variety. Filipinos love mangoes too. But we eat green (unripe) mangoes and yellow (ripe) mangoes.

Our students tried the tamarind. This sweet variety of tamarind is from Thailand.

Next are Mu-chi no hi and Setsubun ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต

K2 friends learned a song during their Music Time.

They also listened to the stories about Setsubun and thought of the ogre/demon/monster attitude inside them that they want to get rid of.
