By participating in sports, children learn enjoyment and endurance that is gained from physical activity. They also learn the importance of responsibility, how to carry through with tasks, and the benefits of cooperation with friends. Sports bring forth the spirit of fairness and independence. We have integrated learning with sports and aim for physical development through physical education. Every student has the chance to try a variety of special sports such as flag football, horseback riding, and Japanese archery. There is a multipurpose gymnasium that doubles as an auditorium that can accommodate 1,000 people.
