We visited the immersion school in Oahu "Ke Kula Kaiapuni O'Anuenue" in the morning. Many students seemed to be practicing some kind of traditional dance or exercise with their teachers.
Some of the students received us with their traditional dance of hospitality in the gym. Principal Yim led off and delivered the words of welcome, followed by the traditional dance.
My friend Ms. Nikki Thompson interpreted his words so nicely to Japanese. I had visited this immersion school in 2017 when Hokkaido and the State of Hawaii established the Sister-state Affiliation. We really appreciate her consideration and cooperation as well as the ones provided by her colleague Ms. Mayumi Miyashita.
