In the framework of the Gaztelueta International ProgrammeKanata Hirase of Seido Mikawadai School from Nagasaki has spent an exchange period in the 2nd Baccalaureate.
The Japanese Government's Overseas Stay Programme has once again made it possible to collaborate with Gaztelueta. During these days, Kanata - who is the captain of the Seido football team - has been training with the Gaztelueta youth team. A great football fan, he was able to fulfil his dream of attending the league match between Athletic and Celta in San Mamés.
The 2nd Baccalaureate classmates have given a warm welcome to their Japanese colleague, who has been able to get to know the typical places of Bilbao and Getxo.
At the end of March, another 33 Japanese students, in this case from the Shonan High School, will come to Gaztelueta for the Cultural Exchange with Baccalaureate, which has been held in our school for 16 years.
