Edinburgh Castle

All the boys visited Edinburgh Castle this week. Thanks to Mr. Orii for taking these great pictures.

A Scottish Evening

Last night the boys enjoyed an evening of Scottish culture. There was a bagpiper and a traditional Scottish dancing demonstration. THen the boys sang some Scottish songs and learned how to dres up in kilts! It was great fun. They had a chance to eat haggis and drink Irn Bru (a Scotisch soda) and finally there was a tug-of-war. Everybody had a great evening and learned a lot about Scotland.

Activity Leaders

The afternoon and evening activities at Fettes are run by young leaders, some of whom are university students. They have been very kind to our group. Yesterday they played a murder mystery around the college based on the board game Cluedo. It was fun. 

A Special Visitor

We had a very special vistor today. Mr. Hardwick, who taught for many years at Tokai High School and who started the Fettes Programme six years ago. Thanks for dropping by, Mr. Hardwick!

Russian Supper

Tonight was wonderful! We had dinner with the Russian group. We made sure to all sit next to each other and had a conversation menu - tonight we were talking about school life. It was great to see the boys really communicating in English. Well done, everybody!

St. Andrews Visit

Today, the boys visited St. Andrews. We played on the beach, visited the old castle and cathedral, walked in the old town, saw the university and watched traditional Scottish sports. It was a great day out.

 

Thank you, Mr. Imasato!

Today we say "Good bye!" to Mr Imasato. Thank you for giving your vacation time to allow the boys to enjoy studying abroad. Without these teachers, nothing would be possible. Have a safe trip home. Today Mr. Imasato will be replaced by Mr. Orii.
