Today was a special occasion — students from Uzbekistan came to Pine Hills for half a day. A joint English lesson was held with students from Hakuho, Pine Hills, and Uzbekistan. This was a truly magnificent opportunity for Hakuho students to use their English conversational skills to talk with another group of students and exchange cultural knowledge. Hakuho students were extremely happy to make new friends. For the intensive English class, students refined and rehearsed their individual speeches and group skit for Thursday’s performance. Afterwards students played pickleball and polished their skills. The most intriguing class was French — students were excited to learn French for the first time and successfully learned basic greetings.
