G. Hamilton, who worked for Toyo Eiwa for twenty-five years, was one of the graduates from Mount Allison University, so we are very glad to be able to make our students spend in Mount Allison University.  During their stay they also go on a trip to Prince Edward Island, which is famous for “Anne of Green Gables”.  The first Japanese translator of this popular story among Japanese girls was our alumna.The short-period study course in the U.S. provides the opportunity to study at a Christianoriented high school in Pella, Iowa for two weeks.
