～Started study to develop global understanding and international sense～

The 1st year students of junior high school started “IS “International Study”” at integrated study classes on May 22. They learned cultural differences through communication with people all around the world, grasped current situations in the world and clarified the problems at the 1st year stage. It’s the foundation for “English Camp” in the 2nd year and “Overseas study tour” in the 3rd year.

We invited Ms. Carmelita joy Oja Mogami from the Philippines, Ms. Alise　Donnere from Latvia and Mr. Pornrungroj　Chanon from Thailand as instructors who were introduced by Sendai International Relations Association.

They explained about their home country’s history and cultures for Junior High School students. Our 1st year students were stimulated with their intellectual curiosity and were excited for their question time with the instructors. Mr. Chanon was surrounded by students even after his class and inundated with questions. It was a really good time for international understanding.

Our school was specified a SGH (Super Global High School) by MEXT*. Serious Research Tasks start from Senior High School but Junior High School students are required to raise ““An apporopriate world view” as a global citizen who lives in the modern world” and ““The power of empathy” by accepting other people’s feelings”. We are thinking to cultivate the basic power to take a leap towards Senior High School.
