The Concept of This Program

This English outdoor camp will be held on the shores of Lake Tateshina in Nagano Prefecture. Based on sleeping bag living in a cabin, participants will also experience farming and harvesting at the nearby Yatsugatake Agricultural College ranch, and canoeing on Lake Shirakaba, enjoying the spectacular views of the vast sky and mountains. All activities will be conducted in English, and the program will cultivate children's listening and speaking skills by encouraging them to speak while playing. Not only will this three-day camp provide an opportunity to acquire English through practical output, but it will also foster understanding of diversity and cooperation by bringing together participants from various backgrounds.

*The program is staffed in English. Please read the Frequently Asked Questions at the bottom of this page before applying.
