Highly rated for its acceptance system and experiences on Izena Island, a remote Okinawan island chosen for school excursions.

Among the many remote islands in Okinawa, Izena Island is highly regarded for both the quality of the experience and the ability to accept overnight stays for school excursions. Many teachers and staff from schools that have actually visited the islands have commented that the overall coordination was smooth and that the content was inspiring to the students. The high evaluation is not a coincidence, but is due to the fact that the entire island thinks about trip design from an "educational perspective. There is a clear reason why they continue to be selected.

Uncluttered "lived experience" brings out the natural behavior of students.

The Izena Island experience is not a prearranged, detailed program, but rather a style that accompanies the daily life of the host family. Students naturally learn to "work on their own," "interact with others," and "think" as they spend time together in the "normal" lifestyle of any family, such as cooking, working in the fields, taking care of goats, and tending to the garden. This is why genuine independence is nurtured. This is the main attraction of the overnight stay experience on Izena Island.

Support system that accompanies teachers from pre-inspection correspondence to day-of operation

On Izena Island, from the time teachers visit the island for a preliminary inspection, our educational tour staff will be attentive to their needs. While listening to the objectives and policies of each school, as well as information on students who should be taken into consideration, we make specific adjustments to the experience sites and schedule, making it easy to envision the day of the trip. On the day of the tour, we provide comprehensive support, including on-site coordination, guidance, and trouble-shooting, so that the teachers can "concentrate on the students. This detailed cooperation is the reason why people want to work here again.

High level of "realistic evaluation" as seen in actual surveys and feedback

Reports and written impressions compiled by schools that have visited Izena Island have drawn attention to the changes in behavior and mentality, such as "the students' reactions were positive," and "students who normally do not speak up much have become more active. In many cases, when reported at parent-teacher conferences, students say, "I can send my child there with peace of mind because of the content of this program.

Locality that aims for a "mutual nurturing relationship" rather than a "chosen one".

Another characteristic of Izena Island is its attitude that does not end with "just hosting". Both the host families and the community as a whole take the stance of "nurturing the children together. After students leave, they ask, "How are you?" "I hope she will come back again," which is proof of the educational effect that cannot be measured by numbers. This is the essential reason why schools continue to choose us to come back.
