Nervous at the Beginning, Smiling at the End. Parents' Energy Leads to School Energy! The 2nd SEISA National Parent's Meeting was Held.
カテゴリー:SEISA NEWS(EN)
Under the motto "Those who can, do what they can, when they can", SEISA has parents groups for students and graduates at each of its schools. Parents share their problems, laugh and cry, and encourage each other. First of all, parents need to be cheerful and smile. Then we all nurture our children together. We believe that it is the connections that generate such great energy that are needed to support not only the school but also the children who will carry the future. The "Representative Meeting" will be an event where representatives of parent associations (both current and former students) from each school will come together for training and exchange. The first meeting was held in August 2019 at the SEISA Takao Campus, and the second meeting was held on November 27-28, 2021 at the SEISA Hakone Campus, connecting all regions of Japan via online.
The event was divided into the Hokkaido/Tohoku, Kanto, Tokai/Hokuriku/Kinki, and Chugoku/Shikoku/Kyushu/Okinawa blocks, the two-day event was filled with smiles as participants introduced their local parent-teacher associations, discussed management issues, shared their concerns, and interacted with each other.
“Last time I attended as a parent of a current student. At first I was nervous, but at the end of the day I left with a lot of energy. This time I participated as a member of the alumni parents' group and with new members of the current students' parents' group. We hope to bring smiles and energy to the next event.”
“I believe that the energy of the parents is the energy of the school and the energy of the children. We would like to support the school and teachers, and work together to create situations that bring smiles to children's faces, regardless of whether they are current or former students.”
We were able to reconfirm the unique nature of the SEISA parent's meeting.
As we all felt, the smiles, energy and peace of mind of parents will surely be conveyed to their children, enriching their school life. The experience of the older parents will always be a support for the younger parents. SEISA's job and destiny is to combine horizontal and vertical connections in order to create chemical reactions.
Please continue to follow the activities of SEISA's student associations, parent associations and alumni associations! Thank you for all.
