Last July 21, 2013 – Sunday, our school celebrated the first reunion and was attended by the 1st class until the 13th class of graduates to renew friendship and to socialize. It was held in the school cafeteria with a lunch buffet that started from 11:30 am with a program attended by more than 100 alumni, guests, and also present were two former teachers Mr. Maeda and Mr. Hasegawa. Current teachers and staff, our school Director/Principal Fr. Tagawa who is also celebrating his 88th birthday this year and commemoration of the 20th year anniversary of the primary school department. The first part lasted for an hour and a half with slide show of photos, and enjoyment of the opportunity to visit with old classmates from 20 years ago and catch up on what they have been doing, their careers, their families, their present studies, and the activities they are currently involved in. It was followed by a photo session in front of the Mother Mary statue, then followed by a tour of the primary school building and ball games (kick base and dodge ball). Students decided which game to play based on their favorite activity when they were attending primary school. It was very nice day where everyone had a great time being together, adding new memorable part spent in their alma mater.
