International School in Yokohama · Grades 1–9
 

One of the original members of YES International, MIkiya was very popular with other students for his kindness and strength. He was also a beast in P.E class with great athletic ability! A true role model for lower-graders to look up to.

We all remember Takuho for his wonderful sense of humour and ability to get along with everyone. He joined our school in later grades but improved his English in record time, surprising both his friends and teachers with his level of enthusiasm.

Rina was one of the strongest people we had the pleasure to know and help grow. She was both knowledgable and opinionated, and not afraid to stand up for what she thought was right. Her enthusiasm in outdoor club made her an expert hiker and camper.

Always positive and cheerful, he was a great friend and student in and outside the classroom. Although he spent most of his life abroad, Lucas did fantastically catching up on his Japanese in Kokugo classes; making his teachers very proud.
