CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE
As we approach a new era towards globalization, education takes
center stage. The school then takes another serious responsibility in preparing the next generation for their multifaceted role in society. The goal and wisdom of the new Tsukinoki Senior High School in its curriculum towards global education especially that of an appreciation of Asian Culture
is indeed impressive.
I believe that this approach will nurture students who appreciate and
understand their own culture and traditions and then they will be better prepared to study and understand other countries’ unique customs. To be able to achieve this, the community in which these young people live have a responsibility to provide a safe and friendly environment, the home and family to be the source of strength and inspiration and a cradle of nurturing
moral values.
And then comes the school, a place where children experience the best days of their lives, happy and sad memories they can always go back to when
they become adults. Teachers have special roles to play to assure that students get the best learning experiences. In my long years of teaching, I believe that “Teachers are also actors who must entertain his class through
interesting lessons. If the students enjoy, they will be willing to learn,”
