Thank You!


The boys will soon be home in Japan. They have been an excellent group. As they left their host families all the families praised their good manners. Their teachers at ICE were very positive about them in the reports that they wrote. They can be proud of their behaviour in Ireland this year and the trip has been a great success. The group were very kind to each other and friendly to the other students from around the world. I hope that they have had a life-changing experience and I hope that they will keep in touch in the future. Thank you to Ito Sensei, Hibino Sensei and Miyachi Sensei for their time which they have given to the programme during their vacation. Also, thank you to the host families who provided such a warm welcome to the boys. This was the 7th year that we have been coming to Malahide and the 11th year in total that Tokai boys have been going abroad on these programmes. They have achieved a great deal. I hope that they will take what they have learned in Ireland and spread the positive energy. Please tell your friends and also, be proud to speak English. These boys have seen how useful and fun it is to communicate with other people from around the world and this is an important life lesson. They should be grateful to their families for giving them this opportunity. They made the most of it! Well done, Everybody - and THANK YOU!

Historic Dublin

The boys have had many chances to see the sights of historic Dublin.












Irish Sports

This group learned Irish sports, Gaelic football and Hurling (with the stick and helmet). They had a really fun afternoon.
