Student Voices in Action! (#7)<\/p>\n

Morning Program ☀️<\/p>\n

\u3000We began the day with an early morning drive to the University of British Columbia (UBC), traveling together through thick fog and arriving safely. A few students needed a slower, gentler start to the morning, and the group adjusted smoothly to ensure everyone felt comfortable and supported. The entire group remains together and continues to settle in well.<\/p>\n

\u3000The morning program featured an engaging discussion session with UBC students, beginning with self-introductions and a lively exchange of personal interests and future goals. This quickly turned into a fun and expressive cultural moment as students learned new slang (from playful phrases like \u201cKonnichiwa-gwaan\u201d to Hindi expressions), shared favorite videos and online trends, and even tried out modeling style poses filling the room with laughter and good vibes.<\/p>\n

\u3000The discussion then moved into two key topics: casual clothing vs. school uniforms and the importance of communication skills. Students shared thoughtful opinions on how communication helps people express ideas, build relationships, and connect across cultures. One student reflected, \u201cI want to return to Canada one day, so I will work hard on my English,\u201d showing strong motivation and clear purpose.<\/p>\n

\u3000A sweet highlight of the session came when several students introduced \u201cRadio Taiso,\u201d a traditional Japanese warm-up exercise. The UBC students were intrigued, creating a joyful moment filled with movement and shared laughter.<\/p>\n

\u3000The session concluded with confident group presentations and a cheerful photo moment. Students left energized and inspired, looking ahead with excitement to their upcoming visit to Canada Star Secondary School (CSSS) and the next stop on our Day 3 adventure!<\/p>\n

A Heartfelt Exchange! (#8)<\/p>\n

\u3000Our visit to CSSS began with a heartfelt welcome. Each student received a magnet souvenir featuring positive \u201cYou are\u2026\u201d messages such as \u201cYou are capable,\u201d \u201cYou are strong,\u201d and \u201cYou are worthy.\u201d Students received these messages warmly and thoughtfully asked about their meanings, showing kind curiosity and care. After introductions, students were guided to a welcoming, fireside styled space where they took part in group cultural exchanges. Japanese students introduced important cultural activities to their Canadian peers, and the excitement in the room was wonderful to see as students laughed, danced, played, and connected well. Activities such as Nininbaori, Karuta, and Origami were especially popular.<\/p>\n

\u3000All groups participated so well, preparing and delivering short presentations with confidence. The atmosphere was lively and interactive.<\/p>\n

\u3000Following the cultural exchange, students enjoyed badminton and basketball in the gym, cheering each other on and building friendships through friendly competition. Later, everyone gathered for a presentation about school life and education at CSSS. \u3000Students openly shared comments like \u201cI want to come to this school,\u201d along with playful remarks about how relaxed and friendly the atmosphere felt. The day concluded with a group photo session and opportunities for students to exchange contact information, helping them stay connected and continue building their communication skills in English.<\/p>\n

\u3000To finish the day, we boarded the bus and reunited students with their host families. I believe they are ready for a fun and restful evening together. Their smiles remained strong as they left. I know they are looking forward to a fun filled day tomorrow with their host families!<\/p>\n\n\n
