With the 151st Anniversary of Hisamatsu Elementary School's Alumni Association General Assembly
The 81st anniversary Hisamatsu kindergarten moved to Tokiwa-en building in September!
At the same time as the issuance of the 1873 academic system, Hisamatsu Elementary School in Chuo Ward was opened as the second elementary school in Daiichi Junior High School District.
The alumni association, composed of graduates of Hisamatsu Elementary School, is held every year. This time, after the 150th anniversary of the Alumni Association, I participated as an old teacher at the important Alumni Association on May 26, 2024, which is also the start for the 160th anniversary.
At the same time, Hisamatsu Kindergarten, Chuo Ward, which has spent 80 years with Hisamatsu Elementary School since its opening, will be relocated to Tokiwa Kindergarten Building in Tokiwa Elementary School from September 2024. This was also an important place for presentations at the Alumni Association General Assembly.
Since the number of classes at Hisamatsu Elementary School cannot be built with the expectation that the number of classes will continue to increase in the future, Hisamatsu Kindergarten will be relocated to Tokiwa Kindergarten, which was closed in Tokiwa Elementary School, which has a different school area in Japan. I decided to do it.
I would like to introduce some of the most famous graduates of Hisamatsu.
Michizo Tachihara (poet), Isuzu Yamada (actor), Tadashi Kaneko (naval soldier), Cathachi Edoya (mimicry)
Hayashiya Kikuo (Rakugo artist), Kei Tanaka (Actor), Marie Kondo (Clearing Consultant)
Yuteru Tosa Takuya (comedian)
I checked it online.
Mr. Shuichiro Kawaguchi, Chairman of Hisamatsu Elementary School Alumni Association
Hisamatsu Elementary School Alumni Association General Meeting will be held in 2024. I am the chairman of the alumni association, but I would like to continue to do my best in the future. The alumni association management is also very strict, and it is made up of graduates of Hisamatsu Elementary School. By all means, we would like you to become a steering committee member and volunteer and cooperate. We are currently recruiting, so if you can cooperate, please feel free to contact the secretariat.
Schools with alumni association organizations are also rare. The 150th anniversary is over, and there is also a reserve fund to build a new history toward the 160th anniversary 10 years later.
According to the accounting, "The mailing cost will also rise this year. Thank you for your cooperation in paying the membership fee and the alumni association fund."
※As a homecoming day, first-year junior high school students who graduated from Hisamatsu Elementary School in March were also invited to participate in the Alumni Association General Assembly.
※There is also raffle, and many people are looking forward to what will hit each year. This time, it was good because many first-year junior high school students were hit.

Dr. Yoji Uemura, President of Hisamatsu Elementary School
In 2024, there were 990 students in 30 classes at all schools, making it the school with the largest number of children among 17 elementary schools in Chuo-ku.
Hisamatsu Kindergarten will move to Tokiwa-en building in September. Our school has been conducting educational activities with great care for young children, so even if you move, the feeling that "Hisamatsu is one" will not change.
On November 13 (Wednesday), the "Hisamatsu Festival" will be held jointly by children and children. By all means, I hope that all members of the alumni association will come and support you.
We look forward to your continued support of the alumni association.
Thank you very much.

There was also a performance of the annual guest appearance "Nihonbashi Junior High School Brass Band"!
After the general meeting of the Hisamatsu Elementary School Alumni Association, the performance of the Nihonbashi Junior High School brass band has become an annual event.
All the participants of the alumni association are also looking forward to this concert.
Dr. Kazuhisa Ueno, an advisor to the brass band, also gave consent to the articles and photos.
After graduating from Hisamatsu Elementary School, I will go to Nihonbashi Junior High School, so there are graduates of Hisamatsu Elementary School in the brass band. The graduate served as the facilitator.
The Nihonbashi Junior High School Brass Band is a talented school that participates in the competition every year.
It seems that the 22nd Marching Stage National Convention in junior high school and small organization section in 2024 was awarded the gold prize.
Received the Gold Prize at the 63rd Tokyo Junior High School Brass Band Club in 2023.
Participated in the national marching Jamboree Festival from 1991
Received the Gold Award for 15 consecutive years at the Marching Band National Convention in 2019, and won the Grand Prize by composition 10 times in total.
He also visits local events and facilities such as the 2019 All Japan Brass Band Competition Tokyo representative's first appearance, marching stage national convention, ensemble contest, Oedo wholesaler festival, etc.
It was a wonderful performance.
The performance of the Marching March at Nihonbashi Junior High School is always very fun.
I missed not only the marching songs but also the Beatles Medley.
I was playing an anime song medley from Showa to Heisei.
Wearing a handmade mask and dancing to the anime was also wonderful.

The Hisamatsu kindergarten of Tokiwa-en building is completed, and we are waiting for Hisamatsu kindergarten in September!
This is a picture of the garden building of Hisamatsu Kindergarten. The two-story rooftop space of Tokiwa Elementary School's former auditorium and Tokiwa Kindergarten has already been completed. I had a chance to visit, so I would like to introduce you to you.
The hall is a wooden teacher and warm atmosphere, and I think the children of Hisamatsu Kindergarten will surely be pleased.
The number of classes is also 2 classes for 3-year-old children, 2 classes for 4-year-old children, and 2 classes for 5-year-old children.
Tokiwa Garden building has been renovated from Tokiwa Kindergarten and Tokiwa Elementary School Auditorium.
According to Dr. Yuko Kawagoe, director of Hisamatsu Kindergarten, children have already been going to the school building from time to time since March.

The alumni association seems to hold alumni and class meetings with teachers every graduation year. With Hisamatsu Elementary School as my alma mater, I think that the feeling of being proud and cherishing teachers and friends forever is precious.
The existence of the alumni association and the presence of participants will be a major foundation for supporting the current Hisamatsu Elementary School!
