The presentation of the students from Hiroshima Gakuin was held on August 4, 2011at the high school Covered Courts. The Ateneans expressed their warmest greetings through interacting with the Japanese students very well. In the onset of the event, the principal of Hiroshima Gakuin gave his message remembering the catastrophe that happened in Japan this year. But because of the world’s prayers and support, they gained courage in spite of this impediment.

Moreover, the Japanese students introduced themselves and also showed their different talents and skills, as Ateneans craned their necks to better view their acts. There were impetuous applauses and amusing laughs.

To conclude the program, Mr. Gregorio Re Abonal gave his message and said that Japan, as one of its well known epithets, is the land of the rising sun. Japan always rises up and tries not to surrender despite the barriers and obstacles that it faces. To sum up, it was an event full of enjoyment and delight which marked the fifteenth year of welcoming the Hiroshima Gakuin visitors.
