Before with some free time in the water, we played the classic summer game “Split the Watermelon” (Suikawari)!

Students who wanted to play competed in Rock-Paper-Scissors to decide who would be blindfolded, while the rest of the class gave enthusiastic directions from the sidelines.

Amazingly, the watermelon was split open on the very first try—huge cheers all around!

After the game, we shared 160 slices of watermelon—enough for every student, teacher, and staff member to enjoy a refreshing treat together.
