How’s your week?
It’s Silver Week next week so I hope you have some time off and enjoy the holidays.
I live walking distance from Hario. It’s very near and convenient for me to get to work. Many students also live in this area. Some of my neighbours are Hario students. On the other hand, we also have many students who commute a long way. Our students live or go to school in Fuji but also Fujinomiya, Numazu, Mishima, Shizuoka and Shimizu. One family moved from Fuji to Kannami, 40kms away but chose to keep sending their children to Hario. I’m always thankful to the parents and grandparents who bring and pick up our students. Some of them drive a long way and I appreciate their effort. It means a lot that they choose Hario over other, local schools.
I was reminded about this because we got a phone call today from a PLS sister school in Mie. Recently, one of our students moved to Mie and his parents wanted to find another PLS school so we recommended them to this school, a little far but the only one in the prefecture. They have decided to join even though there is a one and a half hour drive each way to get there. Again, I appreciate the parents time and effort to commute such a long distance.
Sometimes, if something is important to you, it doesn’t matter how far away it is.
Thank you for reading. Have a great holiday.
