Happy 40th Anniversary!


Last week we celebrated Kansai Christian School's 40th Anniversary.
Started in 1970 as a small school for missionary children we have become a school of 40 students some missionary children, some children of business workers, some christian workers, others Japanese citizens that want a English education for their children. In the last 40 years almost 300 students have attended KCS and 78 teachers have worked here.

We celebrated in grand style - students wear school colors. Students of all ages led songs, shared favorite verses and prayed thanking God for his faithfulness. We had a "history lesson" through a slideshow and video from the school archives! (Amazing how the styles have
changed!) And a Trivia game. The longest a teach has taught at KCS is 21 years
- Kobayashi Sensei - our Amazing Japanese teacher.
We also honored the Clarks
and the Woykes
for their many years of service as board members, P.E. teacher, School administrative assistant and behind the scenes miracle workers. They each received a plaque and a food gift.
Following the program we had a potluck and lots of cake.
We also had Friday off of school as a Anniversary gift to everyone.
