Bunkasai... aka the School Fair!
Seiritsu held its annual Bunkasai on September 29th, which the one day of the year when almost all the classrooms are transformed into various displays and fun activities, plus in the main courtyard pops up food stall tents run by various classes and clubs.
Mingling about were student's families, students from other schools, Seiritsu graduates and junior high school students interested in coming to Seiritsu from next year.

The English Conversation Club's room, where guests played Uno in English (if anyone spoke a Japanese word, they had to take up another card!) and watched student-made short English films.
The Cheerleading Club putting on a performance during the half-time of an exhibition basketball game.
One of the many food stalls! Choco-banana, little juicy steaks, frozen fruit punch, sweet caramel popcorn, yakitori, and various other goodies were available for munching on all day.
In the school auditorium there were performances by different student rock bands and dance groups, plus a school theater troupe put on a play.
