On Wednesday, November 19, we visited the Japan Open-Air Folk House Museum in Kawasaki. It was a little cold, but the weather was nice and we enjoyed the visit. The students were interested in the old traditional Japanese houses and the beautiful autumn leaves. There was also a stamp rally, and it was fun to see everyone enjoying it. It became a good day for the students to get to know each other better.

In August and September, each class visited the Ikebukuro Life Safety Learning Center to take part in a hands-on disaster preparedness program. Students experienced earthquake simulations, smoke evacuation drills, and fire extinguishing practice. Advanced classes also learned basic first aid techniques. We hope this experience helps students stay calm and act safely if they ever face an earthquake or fire in Japan. For those who learned first aid, we hope they will remember these skills and use them not only in Japan but also in other countries.

On March 13 ,2025, the 7th Graduation Ceremony of Tokyo International Exchange College Ikebukuro Campus was solemnly held at Minami Otsuka Hall. Faculty and staff in attendance conveyed heartfelt congratulations and cherished memories, celebrating the achievements of the graduating class. Congratulations to all the graduates! May your future be filled with bright and promising success.

On November 12th (Tuesday), we visited the Edo-Tokyo Architectural Museum. The weather was great, and the temperature was unusually high for November. Many students, seeing historical buildings for the first time, were impressed and felt a sense of Japanese culture. Also, we were  able to enjoy the visit while chatting with friends, making it a meaningful and fun day.

In August and September, we held experiential learning sessions at the Ikebukuro Disaster Prevention Center for each class. We experienced earthquakes, smoke, and firefighting activities, and learned what to do during a disaster. Many international students come from countries without earthquakes, making this a valuable experience. I hope that, should they encounter an earthquake or fire, they will be able to act based on what they learned at the Ikebukuro Disaster Prevention Center!

From July 1st to July 5th, each class made Tanabata wishes. This year, many students wrote “I hope to pass the JLPT exam” since the exam date coincided with Tanabata. May everyone’s wishes come true!

On Thursday, May 9th, we went for a walk in Asukayama Park! For the new students, this was their first outdoor lessons. It is the season when the fresh greenery is beautiful, and the students were impressed by the Japanese scenery. It was raining and cold in the morning, but in the afternoon it became sunny and warm. (Sorry to the morning class...) After walking around the park, we visited the museum. Everyone was very interested in learning about Japanese history and culture. Tomorrow, let's continue study Japanese together.
