秋のイベントと言えば遠足ですね。遠足当日は雨のお天気でしたが、子どもたちは雨を吹き飛ばす程の元気で、室内の遊具で思いっきり遊びました。少し暗いトンネルをちょっと怖がりながら通ったり、長いスロープをお友だちと一緒に楽しくお話しながら降りました。一番楽しかったのは、施設の真ん中にあるチャレンジタワーをみんなで登ったことです。塔のてっぺんに到着した子どもたちを待っていたのは、公園を一望に見渡せる素晴らしい景色でした。子どもたちも大興奮！！子どもたちは帰りの電車で「またモリコロパークに来たいな～」と話しながら帰って来ました。この日モリコロパークで過ごした一日が、子どもたち一人一人の思い出の1ページとして刻まれるといいなと思います。 The Hummingbirds went on a field trip to Moricoro Park and although it was a rainy day, it didn’t spoil the fun as the students could play indoors. They had lots of fun crawling through tunnels and running down slopes with their friends. The most exciting part of the day was climbing a huge tower with a spiral slope inside and once they reached the top, the students had a panoramic view of the park and surrounding area. It was such a fun day for the children and everyone said they would like to return again soon.

覚王山インターナショナルプリスクールでは毎年最高に楽しいハロウィーンパーティーを開催しています♪英語幼稚園ならではのイベントですね！ 子ども達も、先生達も、その日は、妖精やプリンセス、スーパーヒーローやおばけなど、色んな種類のコスチュームやオリジナルの衣装を着て登園します。毎年ベストコスチューム賞、ベストオリジナルコスチューム賞、一番怖いコスチューム賞、最高にユニークなコスチューム賞などの賞があります。今年も優勝者を選ぶのがとても難しかったです。パーティーではフェイスペインティングや、ポップコーンなどのお菓子を使い魔女の手を作るクッキングや、様々なゲームをしたり。先生達が作ったお化け屋敷ではキャーッという大きな叫び声がたくさん聞こえた楽しい一日となりました！！！ 名古屋市千種区の城山公園までコスチュームを着たまま仮装パレードをし、公園に着き、子ども達が英語で“Trick ‘o treating!!!”「トリック オア トリート!!!」と叫ぶと、お菓子がもらえます。みんなとても嬉しそうで、お友だち同士でコスチュームを見せ合っていました。今年も最高に楽しいハロウィーンパーティーとなりました♪     The Halloween Party at KIPS was a blast!!! We had so many students and teachers dress up in different and original costumes this year it was so difficult to choose the winner for our costume contest. From fairies to princesses, to superheros and ghouls, we all had a great time face painting, making popcorn witch hands, playing fun games and of course, scaring ourselves silly by visiting the haunted house. After a fancy dress parade to the nearby park we all did trick ‘o treating and showed off our costumes. What a ‘spook’tacular Halloween party!

This year’s sleepover event was full of swashbuckling fun! The theme was pirates and mermaids so boys enjoyed making a pirate hook craft and girls were adorable as mermaids with their own originally designed mermaid tail. We all ate dinner together followed by a walk in the dark to the local park to light fireworks. It was quite an exciting experience for many students! After sleeping all together in the school we woke up early and played a rip roaring exciting treasure hunt game to see who could open the treasure chest first. Who was the winner? For many students it was the first time for them to be away from home […]

This year KIPS students were very excited to go to Kidzania. We all met up early and caught a tour bus to Hyogo Prefecture where the Kidzania Koshien is situated. It took us a few hours to get there, but we all enjoyed sitting with our friends, eating lunch, snacks and playing games on the bus. Kidzania is a fun, educational centre where children can explore and try out different jobs in real life settings. After being separated into groups with an English speaking guide, we were so lucky to make rice balls,pizza, print out a real newspaper, pilot an airplane and learn how to mill rice. We even got […]

This year’s Summer School at KIPS was so much fun! The theme was “All About Nature” and the students enjoyed exploring different topics such as birds, rainbows and spiders. They even got to play with real earthworms and dissect flowers. We had a lot of fun cooking, singing, dancing, doing science experiments and crafts. Elementary students also went to Higashiyama Zoo, the Science Museum and Nagoya Aquarium for field trips and we all made many new friends. All students had a great time at Yokiso Park for their water fight trying to get each other as wet as possible. What a great way to cool off in this hot weather! […]

This month at KIPS preschool students are enjoying escaping the summer heat by having energetic water fights! Nearby Yokiso park is the perfect place for everyone to let off steam and cool down at the same time. Parrot and Eaglet classes joined together to hold exciting battles, as well as practicing road safety walking to and from the park. It was a wet and wild day for all. 今月、KIPSのみんなはエネルギッシュなウォーターファイトをして 夏の暑さを乗り越えています。 近くにある揚輝荘で、みんな熱くなってクールダウンしています。 Parrots（年中）クラスとEaglets（年長）クラスで、白熱したウォーターファイトになりました。 道中の交通安全ルールについてもしっかり学びました。 ウェットでワイルドな一日になりました。
