Welcome from James Steward
Dear HIS Community,
It will be a short introduction from me this week.
Congratulations to Takako sensei and her masterful leadership related to the Spring Concert on Friday. Thank you to all students for their superb contributions!
Graduation is in the air! Please be reminded that our Grade 12’s will graduate on June 10! When you see them, please offer them your best wishes.
Speaking of graduations, the PYP Graduation is also set to occur on June 16!
Enjoy the week ahead.

HEART GLOBAL WORKSHOP INFORMATION SESSION AT HIS
ハートグローバル（元ヤングアメリカンズ）イベント説明会をHISで！
From Jackie Ikegami
WHAT: Heart Global Music Outreach (formerly Young Americans) Information Session
WHERE: HIS (Room to be confirmed)
WHEN: Friday 9th June, 9:30am
Thank you to everyone in the HIS community who has shown an interest in this year’s Heart Global Music Outreach workshop in Hiroshima after my last post in the Crane. Special thanks to those who have volunteered to help promote the event in their own communities by handing out flyers and telling their acquaintances.
すでに6月23日からのハートグローバルワークショップに参加申し込みをされたHISの皆様ありがとうございます。それからお友達に伝えたりして、地元の小学校などにチラシを配ってくださった皆様も大変お世話になりました！ありがとうございます。
Kids from HIS have always made up one of the largest participating groups in this event, and we hope they will enjoy it again this year. Since a number of new families have joined HIS since the last Young Americans workshop was held here, Mr Steward has kindly agreed to let me hold an information session at HIS in case anyone is not sure what it is all about.
ヤングアメリカンズの１０年間を通して、HISからの参加者が多くて、毎年盛りあがったので、ハートグローバルに生まれ変わった今年も、たくさんのHISの子供たちに、この楽しい音楽とダンスイベントに参加する機会があったらいいなと思ってます。２０２０年に新型コロナウィルス前の最後の広島で開催されたワークショップから、たくさんの新しい家族がHISに来られました。ご存じない方もおられるため、今回HISで説明会を行うことになりました。もうちょっと知りたい方はご気軽に立ちよってください。
At this session I can share experience on:
内容
- the Heart Global organisation in general ハートグローバルについて
- what happens during the workshop ワークショップの流れ
- what your kids need to bring 持参するもの
- how to apply 申し込む方法
- what’s involved in becoming a host family ホストファミリーについて
- What has changed since the change from Young Americans to Heart Global and what is the same ヤングアメリカンズとの違い
- FAQ and how we support each other to ensure a great experience for all the kids
皆さんが気になることなどなど…
The session can be conducted in English and/or Japanese depending on the audience.
