School resumed this week and the school is filled with childrens’ laughters once again.

As soon as the children came back to school, they had an Eiken (English Test), a Kanken (Kanji Test), and a Spelling Bee Contest.

At AMICUS, Eiken Jr. has been tested from kindergarten to 2nd grade! It was the first time for some of the children to take the test, but they did a great job!

Elementary school students also put a lot of effort into the kanji test, and since 2014, they have won the Group Award of Excellence every year!

AMICUS also holds a Spelling Bee Contest every year.

Again, the children’s nervousness and seriousness showed the effort they’ve put into practicing hard!

Also, on February 3rd, some grades enjoyed throwing beans on the “Setsubun,” a Japanese festival held one day before the start of spring.
