Principal’s Message

Dear HIS Community

I hope you enjoy the images of the Primary Concert in the Crane Video this week. It was a great event and the young performers did very well up on stage. Congratulations to everyone involved!

We also had some of our alumni join us for another in the series of Alumni Panels so I would like to thank Erika Kodama, Daichi Watanabe, Ryo Kiriake, & Leela Watt for sharing their insights and for being so generous with their time, helping our students develop an idea of what that future could hold for them. We are also preparing for the graduation ceremony for the Class of 2022 where we will officially say goodbye although we hope to see everyone back on our Alumni Panels in the future! Here is a link to the Livestream for the Graduation 4:30pm – 5:30pm on Sunday, 29 June. Enjoy your weekend.

Kind regards

HIS PYP Fun Week

June 6-10

The students have been working very hard this year so the student council decided it would be a good idea to relax a bit. We have planned some fun activities for the PYP students to enjoy throughout the week.

Monday, June 6: Bring a fun board game from home for game day

Tuesday, June 7: Wear your clothes inside out

Wednesday, June 8: Buddy reading

Thursday, June 9: Wear your favorite pajamas to school

Friday, June 10: Dress up as your favorite character. Please don’t bring any weapons.

We hope you enjoy these activities throughout the week.

Sincerely,

Aria

PYP Student Council President

Soccer Club Practice Trial

Next Wednesday afternoon, coaches from SRC (Soccer Representative Club) who run several successful programs around Hiroshima will visit HIS for a trial. All students are invited. A sign-up sheet will be sent home on Monday so please give this some thought over the weekend. We hope that SRC Hiroshima Academy will run a regular program after school next year so this is a chance to try it out.
