Toryo Camp - The Fun!

After working hard during the speeches and workshops, the kids were allowed down to the beach for a few hours play time. After a rather scary “lets blindfold someone, give them a big stick and try to get them to smash a watermelon” game, we all jumped in the sea and splashed away to our hearts content.

The last night of camp is always the best as we have the music show. First we had the band consisting of Austin, one of the English teachers and other musicians (one of whom flew all the way from Tokyo.) They did a whole set included Japanese songs and golden oldies from the Beatles and Eric Clapton.

Then it was the kids turn. First the boys got up and sang a J-pop song. Then the girls busted out Avril Lavinge. Needless to say the crowd didn’t stay in their seats too long and we were all very hot and sweaty after jumping up and down for two hours.


p.s. this isn't me!!

After all that excitement it was bed time for the kiddies but the ALT party had just started. One of the best part about camps is meeting up with the other high school ALT’s who we don’t see very often and playing oh so silly drinking games!
