Cambodian students welcomed by Tokyo Int’l School

A small welcoming committee from Tokyo International School headed off to Narita last month to meet students visiting from Cambodia.

Three student representatives from the host classes presented guests with new school jackets, which they really needed upon arrival on a snowy Tokyo morning after leaving warm Phnom Penh.

Also among the group were host family members who have generously opened their homes for half of the 10-week stay. Bunna, a grade 6 boy, will join Kristine’s class and stay initially with Karen’s family. Mao, a girl, will join Paul’s grade 7 homeroom group and stay firstly with Claudine’s family. Sieng Hong, a grade 8 boy in Mahadev’s class, will stay with Tracey’s family. They will come to school on Monday and start classes straight away.

Everyone at TIS is excited about the new term and the opportunity to welcome and include their new students.
