Second Term in the Japanese School Year
September 12th, 2009 by Miguel
Since the Japanese school year starts in April, September in Japan has a bit of a different feeling than in North America, as it is the beginning of the second term. I wonder if there are other countries that have a school year that starts in April? I always enjoyed the second term. The weather is fairly nice in September and October. The second term is usually very busy with various actives such as sports day, field trips, and music recitals. Unfortunately this year, some Japanese schools were forced to close classrooms due to swine flue just after students came back to school from summer vacation.
