Hello everyoine,
We began the week with a special Farewell Party for Milky Way Students, celebrating the friendships we have built as the oldest class on campus. The younger classes gathered in the music room to share songs and present handmade medals and other class’ own present as a token of our appreciation.
All the classes came together to sing “Tomorrow,” creating a warm and memorable moment for everyone. In return, the Milky Way students touched our hearts by performing their graduation song in front of us all.
It was a joyful and meaningful celebration, filled with smiles, music, and wonderful memories.
To our Milky Way friends, keep shining and enjoy your elementary school journey ahead. We love you!
皆さんこんにちは！
今週は、Milky Wayクラスのお友だちを送り出すフェアウェルパーティーからスタートしました。年長さんとして一年間キャンパスをリードしてきてくれたことを振り返り、みんなでお祝いしました。在園児のみんなで集まり、歌やメッセージ、手作りのプレゼントを渡して感謝の気持ちを伝えました。在園児からの歌のプレゼント「Tomorrow」は、とっても温かく心に残るひとときでした。Milky Wayクラスのみんなも卒園ソングを披露してくれて、思わず胸がいっぱいになりました。とってもかっこよく、きっと在園児みんなが年長児になることにあこがれた瞬間だったと思います✨笑顔と音楽、そして素敵な思い出にあふれた、楽しいお祝いの時間となりました。Milky Wayのみんな、これからも元気に輝きながら小学校生活を楽しんでね。大好きだよ！
To end our school year, we spent our last days as a class playing together at the park. Aurora students delighted in exploring nature—looking for tiny, beautiful flowers and observing little insects. Some children were especially excited to search for clovers, hoping to find a lucky one.
Everyone had a great time running and chasing each other while playing the “Mr. Wolf” game. At one point, we all looked up at the sky and spotted a helicopter and an aeroplane flying close to each other, which brought even more excitement to the day.
It was a perfect way to celebrate our time together. We had so much fun and created memories that we will always cherish.
1年の最後の週、みんなで公園で遊んで過ごしました。Auroraさんたちは自然の中を探検して、小さなお花を見つけたり、虫を観察したりして楽しみました。中には、幸せのクローバーを探すのに夢中な子もいました😊Mr. Wolfのゲームでは元気いっぱいに走り回り、追いかけっこも大盛り上がり！ふと空を見ると、ヘリコプターと飛行機が近くを飛んでいて、さらにワクワクした瞬間でした。
We wrapped up the day by reflecting on the units we explored throughout the year.
Unit 1: Myself – Through their stories and experiences, we could truly see how much the children have grown in becoming more independent and confident in doing things by themselves.
Unit 2: Feelings – The students learned to express their emotions in different situations and began to understand how to manage them.
Unit 3: Animals – The children fondly recalled their exciting visit to Horseland and how happy they were during that experience.
Unit 4: Transportation – Visiting the airport and mailing their postcards was a memorable and meaningful experience for everyone.
We also looked back on special events throughout the year. We danced the “Animal Carnival” to look back on the Sports Festival, bringing back lots of energy and smiles. The children also enjoyed dancing the “Three Billy Goats” themed dances again in the classroom, reminding us of our wonderful Christmas show. These moments filled the room with laughter and joy.
It was heartwarming to reflect on these experiences and see how much the children have grown. These are truly memories to cherish.
今年1年間に探究してきたユニットも振り返ってみました。
- Unit 1: Myself（自分）
自分でできることが増え、自信をもって行動できるようになりました✨ - Unit 2: Feelings（気持ち）
自分の気持ちを上手に伝えることを学び、どうコントロールするかも少しずつ理解してきました✨ - Unit 3: Animals（動物）
Horselandへの訪問が楽しかったことを思い出しながら、嬉しさを振り返りました😊 - Unit 4: Transportation（乗り物）
空港見学やポストカードを投函して相手に届いたことは、特に印象に残る体験でした😊
さらに、スポーツフェスティバルやクリスマスショーなどのイベントも振り返り、踊ったり笑ったりして楽しかった思い出がよみがえりました。
We couldn’t let the year end without cleaning the classroom we had spent the whole year in. Everyone made a great effort to tidy their chairs, tables, and lockers, and packed up all their belongings to take home. They felt proud and happy seeing the room clean and neat, ready for the next class to enjoy.
We wrapped up the day by presenting each student with a Certificate of Appreciation to celebrate their hard work, growth, and dedication throughout the year. It was a heartfelt way to recognize their efforts.
To our dear and dedicated parents, we truly appreciate your kind support throughout the year. Your children’s achievements and growth are treasures to cherish.
1年間過ごした部屋も、みんなでお片付け。椅子や机、ロッカーを整えて、持ち物もきれいにまとめました。ピカピカの部屋を見て、子どもたちも大満足でした。
We are proud of each of them and excited to see all the wonderful things their future holds. Thank you very much for being part of this journey with us.
最後は、1年間がんばったみんなに「感謝状」をプレゼント！みんなの成長や努力をみんなでお祝いする、とってもあたたかい時間になりました。
We wish everyone a wonderful and relaxing holiday! Enjoy every moment, and we look forward to seeing the children continue to shine in the year ahead.
保護者の皆さま、1年間の温かいサポート、本当にありがとうございました。子どもたちの成長は宝物です。これからもますます輝く姿を楽しみにしています！
