This month about twelve students will leave in Kumamoto. They have been living for one year. There are students from England, Canada, Australia, China, Vietnam, Korea.

First each students had a speech. I was suprised that they speak Japanese well. As they lived in Japan for one year, they could speak Japanese well. If I lived in foreign countries for one year, I may speak English better than now.

After speech, we ate some foodds with talking each other. After that some students sang a song and played games. I remembered my young age. When I was young, I used to go to the party like this.
