It is a new sport that is spreading throughout Japan as a sport that can be enjoyed by all three generations, as it can be enjoyed by not only the elderly in the local community but also by people of all ages. ▼Comments from the classroom head: Hitomi Nakamura I want our society to be called 〇〇-kun who is good at ☆☆ instead of 〇〇-kun who refuses to go to school! That’s why I started this project because I thought that if I could increase the number of people who don’t go to school by connecting with people in the local community that they can trust, rather than through the boundaries of school, I would definitely be closer to happiness. “Next time, I want to do it.” “Maybe I’m better at going first!” ” “I want to work with Tanabe-san,” were the words that came out naturally������ ■Koshigaya School Recruitment Guidelines [Target] Elementary and junior high school students who do not attend school [Opening days] 2 days a week (Tuesday/Friday course) 1 day a week (Wednesday course) *Schedule is subject to change.
