Tanabe High School is in Kyotanabe City in the southern part of Kyoto in Western Japan. You will find it about 5 minute walk east of Kintetsu Shintanabe Station. There are famous Ikyuji Temple around the school. There are ordinary department and Industrial Department in Tanabe High School.
Tanabe High School has the second largest sports field in Kyoto and it has three large gyms.
This school has been built from thirty years ago, and it has traditional style and atmosphere
P.E is very very hard in my school. Every day running running running. I'm very tired
Tanabe High's Cultural Festival has changed since 1998. Third grade was supposed to exhibit the student works in each classroom. But since 1998 we perform something like singing, dancing and marching. This try was succeed because all the students and teachers became excited. This is held in September for two days.First and Second Grade is play a drama.
Sports Day is held in September. Students and teachers compete with each other for the prize. I think a tug-of-war is most exciting game because all the students can take part in this game.
