Kobe is a beautiful city nestled between the sea and mountains;
a city of dreams in which even Japanese people yearn to live in. Rich
in culture and heritage, Kobe has a lively history as a prosperous trading
port (much like Yokohama near Tokyo), and is currently the home to people
from all corners of the globe.(The city also boasts a famous Chinatown,
and a wide variety of ethnic restaurants).
Kobe Toyo Japanese College was established in order to
give you the training and ability to develop your future potential. Our
experienced staff offers total support to our students, responding to
your requests with flexible ideas. For example, with our course in Eastern
Medicine, we can provide help to those who plan to continue study in the
medical field. We also support those who intend to study at universities
in Japan or work for Japanese companies.

●Today's
Kobe～January. 17th,2008～ Time flies.
13 years has been passed since the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake
hit KOBE.
At 5:46 AM on January 17, 1995, a huge earthquake hit the southern
part of Hyogo Prefecture and lasted for approximately 20 seconds.
That is the "Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake"
Approximately 6,434 people (final estimate as of 2006), mainly
in Kobe, lost their lives as a result of the earthquake.
A lot of people gathered to Higashi Park to remember victims
of the earthquake and give a prayer. We, each class also went
to the Higashi Park to do so after classes.
We would like to pass this fact and our feeling to the world
through our students from all over the world.

●College
report!~peak of summer~
♪August ♪
We had a really hot summer this year in Kobe. Some students
took the vacation time to enjoy their own activities while other
students studied hard in the exam preparation classes in air-conditioned
classrooms. (Picture: Japanese language Proficiency Test prep.
Class)
Students who studied hard in the summer can now reap the rewards
of fall. As for those who didn`t study so hard…..well, that`s
ok, there`s still time. Let`s work hard to accomplish all our
various goals!!
Learning is not limited to sitting
at a desk, extra curricular activities held at several different
places also provide various experiences. (Picture: Kawasaki
World field trip, Japanese paper making, Osamu Tezuka Manga
museum field trip)
At Kawasaki World students were able to practice speaking Japanese
with the staff. Although making Japanese paper wasn`t so easy,
it was nice to be able to see the result of your own original
work. When we finished our own anime we were surprised to see
how good it turned out on screen. It`s important to be able
to have experiences like this to use daily Japanese and be able
to put to use the vocabulary and what not students have learned.
Little by little we`re able to reach our dreams!!
●College
report!~Early Summer~
♪July ♪
（photo：TANABATA, Tea ceremony, &YUKATA）We wore Japanese
traditional summer Kimono called YUKATA , and tried Japanese
Sweets and green tea. We experienced traditional Japanese culture
and enjoyed Tanabata star festival.
（photo：Bus trip to Kyoto）
We went to Arashiyama, Kyoto by Sagano scenic train from Kameoka,
and enjoyed breathtaking scenery. Then we had a bit tense time
at Kyoto Imperial Palace. In the end we had a relax time with
a voice of Suzumushi, homoeogryllus japonicus.
After we experienced the traditional culture in Japan in the
early summer, some were moved by it deeply, and some were not
interested in it at all. However, it is the fact. It is OK if
everyone can make the best use of their own experience in Japan,
and let us make effort to improve Japanese skills!
♪ June ♪
（photo：Origami[folding paper] class）
We tried to fold coloured papers and made them into beautiful
cranes, lilies and other staffs. Everyone finally made unique
works.
（photo：National BUNRAKU theatre）
We participated in "Bunraku appreciation class" in
the only theatre for the only Bunraku in Japan in Osaka. The
story telling of Dayu is unique and easy to listen , and we
gazed to the movement of a doll which is moved beautifully by
three people.The tone of the samisen sound effectively, too.
It was also easy to understand the explanation because of the
Dayu`s interesting and witty talk. A student went up to the
stage and she experienced to move a doll. It seems that the
doll is very heavy, and it is difficult to move.
♪ May ♪
（photo：Ikebana [Japanese style flower arrangement]）
We joined the ｢15th IKEBANA International festival｣held in Osaka.
We enjoyed the solemn atmosphere of traditional Japanese dance,
and of course, the beautiful flowers were really lovely!!

●TENMA
Festival Report, 2006
"TENMA festival" has been held on the day of the
big event of Kobe, "Kobe festival" on Saturday, May
13. As for students, they prepared "Pearl iced tea from
Taiwan, Canadian fruits punch, Korean food, Chinese cuisine,
and the Thai cuisine" though it was unfortunate weather.
Also we could see those who absorbed
in the games and the fortune-telling at a corner of the room.
At the same time, the classes of "English, Chinese, Korean,
and Swedish" in which students became teachers were held.
We think that it was a good chance that it can introduce student's

We all are waiting for your participation.
