In the past, summer camps were usually held in the United Kingdom or the United States.

This year, why not experience Japanese nature and culture fully in Japan?

Japanese cities are clean with little garbage, and crime is low. Cell phones and wallets left on trains are delivered to the station and have a high chance of being returned to you. Cell phones and wallets left on trains are delivered to the station and have a high chance of being returned to you.

Trains are crowded, but almost always arrive on time, and everyone lines up on both sides of the train when the doors open. Even if there is a disaster, there are no riots.

Many foreign tourists tell us how wonderful Japan is through SNS and other means.

How is this possible?

Japanese education has been attracting attention worldwide, but this year, a documentary film about Japanese elementary schools called “ Elementary School Students: A Small Society” was nominated for an Academy Award.

Watching the film will help you understand why Japan is a clean and orderly country, where people help each other without conflict and where cooperation and morality are so important. and morality are so important.

Please come and experience the secret this summer.

The event will be held in Fuji-Hakone, a World Heritage site.

You will sleep in a Japanese tatami room, take a Japanese bath, eat Japanese food, clean your room, and learn Japanese language, calligraphy, and Wa-Taiko Japanese calligraphy, and Wa-Taiko drumming for a week.

A British university student will lead the team, and all activities will be conducted in English, so it is OK even if you do not understand Japanese. also a good opportunity for non-English speaking students to learn English.

In calligraphy and Wa-Taiko drumming, students think about concepts to solve global issues.

If we eat and sleep together from childhood, we will hold hands to create the world together instead of fighting each other as adults.
