【高1新クラス】 ケンブリッジ研修①

DATE : 2017/5/18
Everyone arrived in Cambridge on Sunday afternoon and after a longer wait at immigration, we finally got out of the airport then onto the bus to Cambridge.
 
Usually, on the bus, students are tired after the long flight and struggle to stay awake for the two-hour journey. However, this time, there was singing and playing all the way to Bell school.
 
From Bell school, everyone got into taxis and headed to their homestays. Everyone settled in well and looked excited for the next two weeks. On Monday morning, we met at Bell school at 9, and nearly everyone was extra early. We then went into town for an orientation around Cambridge, followed by lunch at Bell school, then an introduction lesson at Bell before separating off into their different classes for their first proper class.
 
The rain in the morning on Monday gave the students the ‘true’ English experience. Students had to find various places around the city centre and take photos. The fastest team was Anna, Elena and Madoka. They were rewarded with some tasty cupcakes. Some groups didn’t get to complete the whole task, but I think in the end, students got to get a better sense of Cambridge and where everything is.
 
The lessons in the afternoon helped the students to settle in and gave them a chance to meet their teachers and get to know Bell school a little better.
 
From now, the schedule is busy and there are lots of things the students also have to organise by themselves, like a video project and a trip to Fitzilliam museum.
 
Rain is forecast for the next few days, but I’m sure it won’t dampen the students’ spirits.
 
 
5月14日、日曜の午後に無事にイギリスに到着して、ケンブリッジに向かうバスに乗り込みました。普通、こういったタイミングでは長いフライトによる疲労で起きているのがやっとなのですが、今回は歌声も聞こえるほど元気でした。その後、さっそくホームステイ先に向かいましたが、みんな元気でこれから始まる2週間にワクワクしている様子でした。月曜は、午前中にケンブリッジの街中でオリエンテーション、午後にはそれぞれのクラスに分かれてレッスンという内容でした。月曜の朝の雨はまさしくイギリスらしさを体験する機会でした。生徒たちは、街中の色々な場所を見つけて写真を撮ってくるアクティビティをしました。一番に終わっチームにはおいしいカップケーキが賞品として贈られました。全てのタスクを終えられなかったチームもありましたが、この活動を通してケンブリッジ市内の土地勘がついたように思います。これからのスケジュールは詰まっていて、生徒たち自身が計画・実行していくような内容もたくさんあります。しばらく生憎の天気が続きそうですが、生徒たちは元気に頑張ってくれるでしょう!
