Support tour day 2. We planned to wake up at 8:00 AM, but some children woke up at 4:00 AM, perhaps because their excitement hadn't settled!?
During breakfast, the children became more active in communicating and were excitedly talking about the previous day's events.
After breakfast, there was time to stroll around the area near Kiyomizu Temple and look for souvenirs. The kids seemed to really enjoy tasting Yatsuhashi, and most of them ended up buying some.
Some children bought keychains again, and others chose souvenirs for their family members, thinking carefully and selecting on their own.
Next, we will visit Amakando East Store, our experiential learning site.
This activity is "Japanese sweets making".
Experience making Japanese sweets featuring peony and azalea designs.
They listened carefully to their mentor (teacher) and were absorbed in making Japanese sweets.
The finished Japanese sweets peony was taken home, and the azalea sweets were enjoyed on the spot.
Finally, everyone watched the master making traditional Japanese sweets, and the children were excited, saying "Amazing!!" at the master's craftsmanship! At the end, we took a group photo with the master in front of the shop.
After the trial, everyone has lunch along the Kamogawa River.
After finishing their lunch boxes, we took a moment for the children to quietly feel the Kamogawa River for one minute.
We also heard comments from the children such as "The breeze feels nice" and "The sound of the river is soothing."
As the cheering tour gradually came to an end, the children, feeling a bit sad, walked while gazing at the streets of Kyoto, saying, "Are we already going home?"
Upon arriving at Tokyo Station, some children appeared sad, and they were calling out to each other, saying "Let's meet again." Over the two days, the children were able to gain many valuable experiences, not only in soccer but in various other activities as well.
Let's use this experience as a stepping stone and continue to grow together!
And let's meet again on the away support tour!!!
