ESS English Walk

Horion’s ESS Club had their second English Walk at Nijo Castle last Thursday, October 4, 2018. There were six students who participated in the activity. Two teams of three walked the grounds of Nijo Castle excitedly looking for tourists to interview in English. They were able to talk with people from many different countries around the world like Australia, China, France, Germany, Switzerland, United States and many more. All the tourists gladly answered questions about their visit in Japan, about their country and about their favorite music! After each interview, students give out handmade leaflets as tokens of appreciation. The visitors loved them! These unique leaflets give information about cafés or restaurants nearby that the tourists can try. The weather was gloomy but it did not dampen everyone’s spirit to have fun using English. They even went inside the castle and marveled at the beauty of Nijo Castle’s interior. ESS members eagerly anticipate the next English Walk!

ＥＳＳが発足して３年目、２回目の English Walk を１０月４日(木)に行いました。
朝学校に集合した６名の部員は顧問とＡＬＴのメルビン先生に引率され、二条城へ。３人１組になり早速外国人観光客にインタビューを試みました。どの観光客も気さくに応じてくれ、丁寧に英語で答えてくれました。天気は曇り、少し雨にも降られましたが、多くの観光客に恵まれ、数えてみると８カ国の人にインタビューができました。部員達も大満足で、少し英語にも自信がついたようです。
音高のＥＳＳは、ＡＬＴの先生がお見えになる木曜日の昼休みに活動しています。
