'Welcome to Japan Society' Meeting Report {Eng ver.}

Hello, this is Hiroshi.

I finally can post the blog about 'Welcome to Japan Society' Meeting Report in English as I have been busy with my coursework after I posted Japanese version.

On 4th of November, we held 1st Japanese Society Meeting called 'Welcome to Japan Society' Meeting which 34 students were coming in total.

Starting from the greeting from the president of Japan Society, Tomo and vice president, Kiyo, presented about what we did in the last academic year.

The highlight of last year was charity activities for the earthquake in East Japan.
We did not only have fund-raising, but also collecting messages from the students which reached 500 at last.

Also, we had charity event at the Rocket. We supplied free Japanese foods and had some stalls for introducing Japanese culture. (Origami, Calligraphy etc.)

After that we had some team games and everyone was very serious because the winner got Japanese sweets!!

At the end of the meeting, we took mini-questionnaire to see what everyone expects from Japan Society.


Then we moved on to the dinner session and went to kebab restaurant near North campus.
It seemed everyone was having fun in both meeting and dinner, so it was not bad start for the 1st meeting I guess.

We will have next meeting soon, so we will keep you updated!


Thanks,
Hiroshi
