The last day of children's art class.
去年の10月から約１年に渡って講師として関わらせて頂いた『びわ湖子供造形教室』
"Biwa Lake Children's Art School", at which I have worked as a teacher for about 1 year since last year's October.
☆木曜日コース ★Thursday's course
一身上の都合で本日をもちまして身を退くことになりました。
Due to personal reasons, finishing with today's class I retired from the position.
いっちゃん先生の愛称を付けてくれてとても懐いてくれた子供たちとの出会いと格闘（笑）の日々… 。
The days of encounters and little scufflings with the children who nicknamed the teacher Icchan and became very close with her...
子供を世話してる様に見えても懐に入るのは実は大人の方なのです。
Even though it looks like we are looking after the children, the ones being taken care for are actually the adults.
そこでやっと子供との信頼関係が築かれる。社交辞令など何の意味もありません。
It is there that the trust and connection with the child is brought up. These are not honeyed words or anything.
子供はすべてお見通しなのです。
The children see through anything.
その点で教えられる事が多く、良い意味で身体も感性も振り回され、勉強になったのはこちらの方でした😊
There are lots of things that could be meant with that, but, with the good meaning in mind, both my body and my feelings got twisted up, and I was the one who learned at the end.

☆水曜日コース ★Wednesday's course
数ヶ月やたった数週間のお付き合いの子供もいますが、みんなとお別れの記念写真を撮りました。
There were children with whom I spent months, or only a few weeks, but we took one last photo together.
☆木曜日コース ★Thursday's courseサプライズでこんな素敵なメッセージカードまでもらって😭
I received this message card as a surprise. (≧▽≦)
“Thank you! Icchan”
宝ものを扱う様に鞄にしまい込みました。
この子供達が人間として豊かな心と自信をもって生きていく事を心から願います！
I put it in my bag as if it were a little treasure box.
I wish from the bottom of my heart that these children grow up to be kind and confident adults!
そして明日から改めて子供の可能性と力をより発展させるべく新しい事業の準備に入ります。
そのお話は具体的にまた当ブログでも発表させて頂きます〜！
And, starting tomorrow, I'm preparing for the beginning of another project that is meant to develop children's abilities and imagination.
I will post about that in detail on this blog soon~!
🎄去年のクリスマス。みんなどことなく顔が幼いのです😊
Last year's Christmas. For some reason, everybody was having a childish expression. (^ ^)
