Funabashi Children’s Festival…

admin — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 13:02:28 +0000

On the 19th of June, we went to a childrens festival.

My friend lives in Funabashi and his mum played the French horn (It is like a round saxophone but bigger than a trumpet) at the festival. At the festival, we made a key chain using magic plate. You draw a picture on the plate and put in the oven for 5 seconds. When you do that, it shrinks ! it was very cool. After that we went to an indoor playcentre. I like the game called “TAIKO NO TATUJIN” (I am playing it in the photo below). It was a great day and i had lots of fun.

School in Japan…

admin — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 07:50:13 +0000

Hi Everybody,

I am having lots of fun at Japanese school!!! I am going to a primary school near my grand parents’ house for 2 weeks.
I am in Grade 2, Class #1. I was given a book which had everyone’s photo, their name, what they like and a message to me.
On the front page, It said “YOUKOSO 2-1″ which means welcome to grade2 class1. I have made a lot of friends, and I hope I can stay in touch with them when I return to Australia…

June 11th…

Hi Everybody, on June 11th, our Mum, Emily and Me went to a very cool place called Shimizu Athletic Park.

There was lots of adventure courses and we all tried the Family course. It was a lot of fun and we did nearly every part of the course … except the water course because there were a lot of big kids that we saw fall into the water and we did not want to fall into the water too. I hope you enjoy the photos below… (remember to click on the photos for a bigger view)

More Adventures soon…

Mitchell here again,

I am excited because I am going to be going to Primary School here in Japan for two weeks.
I start next week and today, my mum and me went to the local school and met the principal and the classrom teacher Miss Matsumura. School starts from 8am though, so I will have to get up early every day. The school has an outside swimming pool and there is swimming classes on Monday so I am looking forward to it…

Here is a photo of the school that I will be attending in Saitama.

Emily is a little too young to join in with School on this trip, so maybe on our next trip She can go to school too…
