Echizen Washi

In Japan, students have their entrance exams in Feb or in March and graduating, then starting a new school life in April.

Here I have four junior high school students in the third grade to teach English. They're studying really hard. And on the 4th and 5th they have their first important test....

One day one of the four came to my house at night and answering an English question. It said,

"Where will you take your friends if they come to Fukui ? Why ?"
 

Remember, they're Japanese, of course. It's not really easy for them to read and answer.

But I was surprised to see hers;  " I will take them to ` Washi no Sato `. We can make paper there. It will make them
feel fun because it is very interesting . They will have a good time. "  WOW, thank you for advertising our Echizen Washi Village ! Almost all my students live in the village and her grandfather is also a papermaking artisan.

Children are our bright future.
