Missing the Mercuries?

Missing the Mercuries?

Tomorrow we welcome in our current ILH students for our Moving-Up Ceremony. How exciting to be in the next grade!

Wednesday will be our first gathering of the new Jupiter class. There will be a lot of new faces (maybe some crying ones) to get to know!

As we are thinking of all this change in our first week back, it’s easy to miss last year’s Mercury class as they move on to elementary school.

Here is a video of this past year’s Mercury class during their last field trip with ILH.

For upcoming Mercuries, this may be what your class experiences, too! Look forward to it! 🙂

Fall Field Trip

Fall Field Trip

This year our school went to こども自然公園 for our annual fall field trip!

The weather was very sunny and a little windy. We did lots of walking through nature. But we had to be careful not to get any prickers on our pants!

We also found many big sakura tree sticks and played a sensei scavenger hunt, complete with a stamp rally.

As we went through more of our walking route, we were able to fill in more spaces on our maps, and it was really fun to look forward to the next stop. We colored sakura trees, drew scarecrows, and got to meet many different kinds of chickens!

Our lunch picnic was also very peaceful, as we found a lovely spot by the lake, where we were very close to the ducks.

We are looking to next year’s field trip! Thanks to all the chaperones who came along with us on our journey!
