Japanese speech contest in Kanto Koshinetsu area was held in Saitama and Ms. KATHRIARACHCHI ERANGA UPULEE from Sri Lanka in A2 class participated as our school representative.

 The influence of big typhoon was worried, but the speech contest was managed safely and 16 participants form various countries showed wonderful speeches. Ms.Upulee also made a speech with a feeling of dignity and won a "Saitama Prefectural Governor Prize"! 

She was very nervous, but after the speech she said “I am glad that I made a speech in Japanese and got a prize though I have never made a speech in my own language." Surely this experience will be a great confidence. 

Congratulations!
