Colour Supplement: In Ueda, Japan

I am Hommi Isao, aged 61. I am principal of Ueda-nishi highschool. We have 800 students and 70 staff in our school. It is located in Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan. We held winter Olympic games in Nagano in 1998. Ueda City is surrounded by a lot of hills and mountains. We have many hot springs in Ueda.

Due to Covid-19 our school was closed from March to May. During closure we had on-line classes. We began school again on June 1st and reduced summer vacation to secure classes. To prevent infection we wear a mask and are doing hand-washing diligently. We open the window of the classroom and antiseptic solution for sterilizing hands is provided for the entrance of the classroom. Recently, infected persons are very few and we live under approximately normal life every day. Almost all people wear a mask in the public place.
