Pacific and West Indies Student’s Presentation & Farewell Party

On 29 January, to wrap up the “Pacific Islands and West Indies Students Invitation Program”, invited students made presentations about their impressions of Japan and what they learned during their stay in Japan, followed by a farewell party at Sophia University.

A total of 16 students split into four groups to create a Powerpoint presentation about their experiences while in Japan. Each group prepared a unique presentation for the audience; some used only photos, some groups included movies to portray their month spent in Japan. A fun trip to Tokyo Disneyland, a delighted surprise in the high level of customer service, as well as the warm hospitality experienced in Japan were just a few highlights from the presentations. All students were handed a Certificate of Completion from APIC President Mr. Yoshiyasu Sato.

Another set of presentations was made by Sophia University students and Reitaku University students who had visited Micronesia for a summer study session last year. At the farewell party, other Japanese students who were close to the students from the Pacific and West Indies were also in attendance. The party was lively and full of chatter about the times each of the students had, and of course a group photo was taken at the end. The students were sad to part ways, but everyone had something valuable to take back from their experiences in Japan and overseas.

We feel that by providing this opportunity for both students from the Pacific and West Indies as well as Japanese students that both groups were able to gain a deeper understanding of each other other’s background and forge deeper relations between the countries on a personal level. We hope to continue this exchange in the future.
