早水さん、おめでとう!
On Monday, grade 9 students had a break from their busy schedule
and went on a field trip... well, not so much a field, but the center of Hiroshima City,
where they learned a bit of history and some of the establishments
that keep society functioning.
The students broke up into four groups, and each group visited one place of their choice each.
Group A went to the prefectural police station, where they learned
about the workings of the police.
Group B went to the courthouse, where they participated in a model courtroom.
Group C went to the mint, where they learned about how coins are made.
Group C went to the Japanese national bank, where they learned about the role it plays
in the economy. All of the groups went to the Peace Memorial Museum in the Peace Park,
to learn about the history of Hiroshima and the effects of the atomic bomb.
Perhaps, though, the highlight of the trip was visiting the NHK building,
where students could scuba dive with fish on a big 3D screen
and experience the high tech wonders of the newsroom.
It was a long day, but the weather was good, and everyone went home tired,
but satisfied with the day's events.
体育際でも活躍した白組、応援団長の高2の森下くん(写真中央)が、
体育祭の運営を後輩へ引き継ぐために高1のクラスに来てくれました。
「来年度は現在の高2はもう運営には関わらないので、君たち高校1年生がすべてを運営します。
もちろん先輩としてアドバイスはしますが、あくまで運営の中心はこれからの君たちなので、
体育祭実行委員を引き継いでくれる生徒を募集します。関心のある生徒は申し出てください。」
何人かの生徒がすぐに立候補してくれましたが、森下先輩たちの姿を見て、
きっと自分もやりたいと思っている生徒は多くいるはずです。
新しく来年度の体育祭を担う生徒の皆さんも、ぜひより良い運営を目指してがんばってください!
