Arwachinians Attend Thai International Japanese Camp 2018

An Indian team consisting of 3 Japanese language teachers along with 7 students attended the Thai International Japanese Camp which was held in Bangkok from 1-5 May, 2018. Our Japanese language teacher, Mrs. Vandana Jain represented Indian Contingent along with a student, Arnav Gupta Class 12 B, who was also a part of the team.  The camp was organized by the Thai Ministry of Education in cooperation with the Japan Foundation, Bangkok.

In order to attend the camp, the applicants had to go through two screenings at All India level. In the 1^st screening process, the resumes were evaluated. In the second screening round, a telephonic interview session was organized by the Japan Foundation, Delhi.

The camp was organized on a massive scale, with 162 student & 52 teacher attendees from 11 countries (Thailand, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, Russia, Australia, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Japan and Mexico). The theme of the camp was “Waste ? – Challenge together by the 3Rs” in viewing the solution of the garbage problem to build a better environment.

The objectives of the project were to:

·        Develop students’ 21^st Century skills (such as ability to explore, ability to guess, ability to work with others).

·        Promote inter – cultural understanding of the teachers & the students.

·        Obtain Camping ideas for the teachers

The student participants used Japanese language in order to complete tasks with a variety of activities such as brainstorming, conferences, field trips, reports, presentations and other group dynamics and powerful activities. Simultaneously, the teachers were being motivated to obtain and develop the skills needed to organize such big events. Moreover, the teachers got the opportunity to form a Japanese-Language network crossing their national borders.

Our teacher as well as the student were really benefitted by attending the camp. The initiative will be taken forward to spread the awareness about 3Rs by educating students through Interactive Assemblies in the school. They are also now highly inspired to organize such events at Inter School Level.
