Special discount for the first 7 students! Ski (Snowboard) x STEAM x English] 3 days/2 nights Winter Camp!

Hello, this is Kaburaki, GLI representative.

For a long time, various activities have been restricted in Corona. The educational community is concerned about the emotional growth of the children during this time. Children grow up by doing lots of activities, experiencing lots of things, and feeling lots of things. This experience has been taken away from them at Corona. I have been saddened by all the restrictions.

So, GLI decided to hold its annual Winter School on the slopes in order to let the students get rid of their frustrations to the fullest.
