Here is an update on our short-term study abroad program at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Canada, which began on Tuesday, July 21.
On Day 15, the final day of classes, each class held a closing ceremony to mark the completion of the program.
All three teachers who guided our students throughout the program were warm, caring, and sincerely dedicated to each and every student. The experience of learning while interacting with so many different people has become an invaluable and unforgettable part of their journey.
o conclude the program, the students enjoyed a farewell party with the teachers and buddies who had supported them throughout their stay. They performed dances, quizzes, and other activities they had been preparing over the past two weeks, filling the venue with smiles and laughter. To bring the celebration to a close, the students performed our school song. The teachers and buddies praised them warmly, not only for their performances but also for their positive attitude and dedication to learning throughout the program.
On their final night, some students stayed in the dormitory lounge until just before bedtime, making the most of every last moment with their buddies.
Then came the final day. With smiles and tears, the students said to their buddies, “See you again,” before bidding farewell to Vancouver.
Surrounded by Canada’s beautiful natural environment and immersed in a different culture, the students gained a wide range of experiences and insights. It was a truly meaningful two weeks that allowed each of them to learn, grow, and return home with memories and friendships they will treasure for years to come.
