These are the children from the tea plantation school that I visited in July last year on my Sri Lanka tour. Mr. Ichihara, who lives in Chiba, where I participated last year, sent it to me. . . This year's tour starts from the city of Galle and goes around Ruhuna, Uva, Nuwara Eliya and tea plantations. I would like to visit some schools and interact with children. Elementary school starts at the age of 5, and in some schools elementary, junior high, and high schools all study together. Most of them have around 100 students, but there are also big schools with 1,000 students. . They all wear white shirt uniforms, blue shorts and skirts, and they look cute. All the students gather on the streets and in the schoolyard to welcome you. . . All my parents work in the tea plantation. ～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～ This year we will be leaving on July 7th! The deadline for the tour is approaching (May 24th) For inquiries and applications: Tiso Buchi Company Co., Ltd. 0466-24-4649 JTB Kanagawa West Branch (Kurokawa) 0463-23-9051
