On Saturday, October 3, we held our annual school festival, the Linden Festival, under this year's slogan: “B.E.E. — Bloom, Enjoy, Express: Let Everyone's Individuality Blossom!”

The day began with a joint stage program featuring students from both the Elementary School and the High School. Following opening remarks by the festival committee chair, Miss Imasato (Grade 10), students showcased what they had learned and experienced through speeches about extracurricular activities, study abroad experiences, and overseas educational trips, as well as musical performances and dance.

In the afternoon, students organized a variety of activities and exhibitions in the High School building. These included a maze, displays introducing traditional festival games from around the world, hands-on workshops led by our science and art teachers, and musical performances. The activities provided students with opportunities to express their individuality and showcase their talents.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the members of the school's support association for their help in making the event a success.

This year's Linden Festival once again provided students with a valuable opportunity to work together with their peers and experience the sense of achievement that comes from collaborating toward a shared goal.

We sincerely thank everyone who joined us and helped make the festival such a memorable day!
