We Visit Gujo Hachiman Junior High School





We visit Gujo Hachiman Junior High School on Thursday, October 20th. The first thing I noticed as we approached the school was that all the students were dressed in very formal uniforms ( as you can see in these pictures). We found out later that all students are required to wear their uniforms to and from school, but at school, they have their choice of less formal sports attire. The brass band played a lovely welcome as we entered the room and then the president of the student body gave us a warm welcome in English!!! The band played our National Anthem and then their own.
