The text of your letter is roughly like this.

"The 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics will be a good opportunity for children to experience valuable experiences and experiences.

However, during the tournament, many players and spectators from other countries visit Tokyo.

As a result, it is expected that the educational activities conducted by elementary and junior high schools and kindergartens during the summer vacation will be affected, such as traffic congestion and the difficulty of securing chartered buses. "

(This includes elementary school summer seaside school and junior high school club activity training camps, and pool guidance during summer vacation.)

Certainly, it is Chuo-ku, which has Harumi's athlete village.

From Harumi to the New National Stadium in the direction of Sendagaya

Moved to swimming venues and tennis venues in the coastal area of Koto-ku.

It is expected that it will be quite difficult when it comes to "moving people".

The letter from the Board of Education will continue.

"So, we have changed the period of summer holidays only for fiscal 2020.

Pool guidance, elementary school summer seaside school and junior high school club activity training camps will be implemented smoothly.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

Summer Holidays

It means that the summer vacation period is set approximately one week ahead of schedule.

Looking at the calendar, July 13 is Monday.

Is it practically possible to say that the summer vacation starts on Saturday, July 11?

With this, we can secure more than 10 days from the start of summer vacation to the opening of the Olympic Games on July 24.

It's going to be easier to set up various events.

By the way, it seems that this matter was taken up in NHK's news.

It is said that Chuo-ku was the first time that this response was launched.

In the future, I would like to pay attention to whether the same measures will be taken in neighboring wards.

It's going to be.

Events targeting kindergarten and elementary and junior high school students in Chuo-ku

If you are planning to plan in the summer of 2020.

For example, in the last week of August! Even if I think that summer vacation has already ended! It's a coincidence.

On the other hand, even in mid-July, usually when there is still a school.

It is possible to plan events that allow children to gather during the day.

Next summer when various "irregular" may occur.

For children in Chuo-ku, it may be summer when adults narrow down their wisdom.
