Examination…

Is coming soon By Mika, 2C

May has already passed.

Have all of you of the first grade become

accustomed to high school life?

Well, the mid-term examination starts on June

13. It might be the first examination in Hukuoka

high school for the first grader. There is the Iwate

inter-high sports meet and the Class Match, too, to

prepare at the current time. I think that any student

is busy with various things. There might be a lot of

people of the third grade who are starting to study

for exams, too.

Let’s work hard so that we can get a good grade

in the examinations.

DDoo yyoouurr bbeesstt!! By JiJi

On May 20th, the opening ceremony of the Iwate inter-high school sports

championships was held in Morioka. The high school students gathered

there from around Iwate prefecture. The first year high school students took

part in the opening ceremony. The championship tournaments will start at

last!

This tournament may be the last one to the third year students. Let’s do

our best so that we won’t regret it later. And students in the first and second

year, let’s support the third year students to do their best and learn from

them.

Good luck to you!!

Hiraizumi ~to World Heritage

By Kaede Masuda, 2D

May 7th, ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites) advised on the registration of

Hiraizumi as a world heritage, but it was with a condition.

In 2008, the cultural heritage of Hiraizumi received the decision from ICOMOS to postpone

registration.

The condition given last month was to exclude “Yamaginogosyo-iseki” because it was not related to

Pure Land (Jodo) Buddhism ideology.

The acceptance or rejection of the official registration is fixed for June when UNESCO World

Heritage Committee will be held in Paris, France.

We wish Hiraizumi to win registration as a World Cultural Heritage!

Movie

Information By Aki Maita, 2B

God’s Clinical Record has won great prizes from

book stores in 2010. This historic work will be

made into a movie which will start August 27th

. The

scene of this movie is Shinshu. Shinshu is enclosed

by beautiful nature. The movie warmly describes

real local medical care.

The protagonist is Kurihara Ichito (played by

Shou Sakurai). He loves his wife very much, and

likes literary work written by Souseki Natume.

Ichito “saves hearts,” playing the part of physician.

Ichito’s wife is Kurihara Haruna (played by Aoi

Miyazaki). She has pretty charm. Haruna “heals

hearts,” playing the part of photographer. Ichito is

sustained by Haruna.

This movie is about physician’s way of life and

shows human drama from “life” to “death.”

Don’t Miss It! (2) By Mr. Oldman, 2D

May 20th was a very nice day!

Do you like the movie, The Pirates of the

Caribbean? It’s 4th movie has been released on

May 20th!

Many girls love Johnny Depp, who plays Jack

Sparrow in this movie. His acting is so

wonderful. In order to play Jack Sparrow, he

shaved his teeth and then attached gold teeth to

surface of his teeth! To remove gold teeth is so

hard. His actor’s soul is hot.

Now, you can get t-shirt of this movie at

UNIQLO. If you buy this shirt, you can get post

cards of this movie, too! These are so cool. I have

already got it!!

This movie is sooooooo

interesting! Please go to

the theater!

Editor’s Note By Akane, 2A

Have you gotten used to new school life?

From now on, school events will come. Let’s

lead a meaningful life with a smile!

Now, it’s time for sports club students to

take part in the biggest games.

Good luck and Do your best!!

Fall seven times stand up eight

Japanese are strong people and that’s what makes you great!

Don’t give up,

keep your head up

No matter how bad things seem

never let up

Stay strong and you will be ok
