@@On June 7th and 8th, I
worked as a student representative,
also known as the
gheadh in AFS, at the Short
Program Sending Orientation
that was held at the Osaka
Hall. This orientation is held
every year by the AFS for
high school students who are
going to have a home-stay
for four weeks in the
summer. The participants of
the orientation at the Osaka
Hall were mainly consisted of
high school students from
western Japan. But there
were new participants: four
from Doshisha, two from
Australia, and two from
Canada. During the orientation,
everyone discussed about
their eagerness towards the
home-stay and they all seemed
very excited. I hope they
come back with many memories
and I wish the best of
luck to all four of them.

@@gIn the mid of June, an
orientation was held for high
school students who are
studying abroad for 11
months starting from the
summer. Five meetings over
the student preparations were
planned within the 3 days
2-night program. I hope the
students were able to learn
something from the orientation.h
@@Since then, Kawamoto has
also worked as a farewell
party staff at the AFS Kyoto
branch for the temporary
students who came to a
university in Kyoto.
