Bellarmine students visited Seiritsu.

Seiritsu Gakuen once again hosted some visitors from overseas. Today's visit was by a school from the United States. We had 11 students visiting from Bellarmine high school, which is located in Tacoma, Washington. The students are studying Japanese at their high school and were able to come visit Japan on a week-long tour. The 11 students are doing a homestay with families in the area while they attend our school. Some of our students are also hosting the visitors.

After greeting the principal and some other members of the school, they were given a tour of the school and then met their partners. This time the visiting students were paired with the 1K class, our naishin class. Our naishin class has just done something similar in March when they went to Australia so they wanted to have the chance to act as buddies for visiting students.


The visitors were able to experience two English classes, a classical Japanese class, a science class, and a math class.

They had bento at lunch with the Japanese students up in the cafeteria. And then during the rest of the lunch break they went out onto the field and had a lot of fun playing with the students.

We had special permission to have two after school club activities for the students. The first club activity was the tea ceremony and the second was a karate lesson.

The tea ceremony was very well received and the club members did a wonderful job.

The karate class was a lot of fun as well.

At the very end the 1K class gave special Seiritsu pendants as gifts to the students before they left.

Bellarmine school has some strong sports teams and ICT programs so we hope we can continue to develop this relationship and we hope to see them again in the future!
