I went to Meiwa High School Affiliated Junior High School in Nagoya City.
My alma mater, Meiwa High School, became a combined junior and senior high school last year, and this time I was invited to be a lecturer for their inquiry-based learning program, "MCJ Summer."
I spoke to a group of bright and energetic junior high school students for about two hours, interspersed with a short workshop.
After the session, the students actively asked questions.
Some students asked some pretty sharp questions.
I thought, "That's Meiwa for you." (Even though I was a struggling student.)
I feel like I've gained strength to look towards a brighter future.
Including the fact that we encountered a terrible sudden thunderstorm along the way, it was a great memory.
I would definitely like to visit again if I have the opportunity.
I was quite shocked to find that the metasequoia tree, which was the symbol tree of Meiwa, was gone.
