Easter, Halloween, Christmas etc. Besides the numerous events (parties) our teachers plan for the students on each occasion, we also have picnics, barbeques, culture festivals and many other outdoor activities.
Community events (Firefighters, Police officers, etc.)
Community events are held a few times a year. The Fire and Police Departments are invited to school to explain the importance of their jobs and teach students how to act responsibly in the community.
World Culture Events
Learning about different cultures helps students to become an open and internationally-minded individual in society. Language Instructors from Spain, Italy, Korea, America, England, Canada, Turkey etc come into the classrooms and provide our students with a "look" into their home country.
Japanese culture events (Setsubun, Tanabata, etc.)
We use this day to celebrate and enjoy the culture of Japan.

Once a year, along with parents we go to a ranch for picking grapes or digging potatoes. Also a couple times a year only the students go to the zoo, museums, aquarium, discovery centers, etc.
