On himself:
|
I have two daughters and five sons. I have one son studying at in the third grade at the new school. My house is two kilometers away from the school. My son walks to school every morning. It takes him about 30 minutes to get there. My wife and I both farm rice for a living. We’ lived here for five years. Before then, we lived in another village close by. We moved here because this village is closer to my plot of land.

On the new building:

I wish to give strong thanks to Nippon Foundation for building the new school. The people who live here are very happy because of it. There have been many changes in this area since the new school was built. All the village children can now study together. The old school had a thatched roof and no walls. There weren’t enough classrooms for all the students. Now the students can all come and study together without any problems. |
