また、９月開催から延期になっていたクローバーデイですが、生徒会を中心にさまざまな工夫とアイデアを出し合いすばらしい行事にすることができました。午前中のステージ発表は、琴同好会の演奏からスタートし、部や同好会、有志が歌にダンス、楽器演奏と練習の成果を発表しました。舞台狭しと躍動を感じる演目や東雲らしさが感じられるものなど、演出も抜群で見応えがありました。時がたつのも忘れ気がつけば最後の「しのすい」の演奏になっていました。ランチタイムに、皆さんがやりたかった焼きそばやカレーなどの屋台を出すことは今年もかないませんでしたが、ＰＴＡ役員の皆さんが地元飲食店に呼びかけて特製弁当を手配していただき、文化祭を盛り上げていただきました。午後は、文化部等の展示や模擬店。デジタル技術を巧みに使い、先生が登場するパロディのビデオ作品を鑑賞する教室もあり盛り上がりました。皆さんのこれまで一生懸命やってきた成果が随所に示され、本年度のスローガン「千紫万紅（せんしばんこう）」の言葉どおり、色とりどりの花が咲き誇りました。今年も、保護者には観覧を遠慮していただきましたが、後日配信する動画で楽しんでもらえればと思います。
コロナの感染状況も落ち着いてきましたが、油断することなく基本的な予防策を取りながら、東雲スクールライフを楽しみましょう。 Go for it ! Shinonome!
It's getting colder in the mornings and evenings, but during the daytime, we can feel the pleasant autumn breeze. The kumquats, which bloom around the time of the local festival every year, have been delayed in blooming this year due to the sudden change in temperature, but they are finally starting to bloom and we can smell the good scent from everywhere. I hope everyone is doing well. How were the results of the midterm exams? Please review and remember what you did not do well on and prepare for the term-end exams at the end of this month.
On the day after the midterm exams ended, we enjoyed a play at the Botchan Theatre and went on a field trip. When we first planned this, we were worried that we would not be able to do it because of the corona, but fortunately, the level of corona restriction in our prefecture has been lowered to a reduced level since then. How was the musical at the Botchan Theatre this time? John Manjiro was born into a poor fisherman's family in Kochi and lived a checkered life, but later became a bridge between Japan and the United States. The story is told from the perspective of his wife, Tetsu. Her powerful life at the mercy of the waves of change overlaps with today's world, and I'm sure many of you sympathized with her story. Various songs and dances were performed, and at the end, it was a fun memory to have the finale together with the cast while waving penlights. After that, you were divided by junior high school and high school grade and went to different field trip destinations. Did you discover anything new?
Also, the Clover Day which had been postponed from September was held. The student council and other members came up with various ideas to make it a wonderful event. The stage performances started with a performance by the Koto Club, followed by songs, dances, and instrumental performances by many clubs and volunteers. The performances, some of which were very dynamic, and others were very unique to Shinonome, were very well staged and worth watching. We forgot about the passing of time and before we knew it, it was time for the last performance of "Shinosui". This year again, we failed to have the yakisoba and curry stalls that everyone wanted to have for lunch, but the PTA members called on local restaurants to arrange for special lunch boxes to make the festival more exciting. In the afternoon, we enjoyed the exhibitions and booths by the cultural clubs and other groups, as well as a classroom where you were able to watch a parody video in which the teachers appeared, made skillfully using digital technology. The results of everyone's hard work have been shown everywhere, and just as the slogan for this year's event, "Senshibankou : A Thousand Violets and Ten Thousand Reds," suggests, the event was filled with colorful flowers in full bloom. Again this year, parents were not allowed to watch the event, but we hope they will enjoy the video that will be distributed later.
The infection situation of corona has almost settled down. So let's enjoy Shinonome school life while taking basic preventive measures and precautions for the corona.
Go for it ! Shinonome !
