On Monday we had some special guests from the United States. Their names are Diana and Gil, and they both work as therapists in Oregon, in the United States. Diana is a graduate of Earlham College, the school which both Mr. Milligan and I graduated from (and Ms. Bush, and Mrs. Hatanaka's sister, and...). 　Diana and Gil joined us for our tenth grade oral communication class. They were a great help to us, and very enjoyable to talk to. They were impressed by our students, and I think they enjoyed their visit! 　It’s always nice to welcome guests like Gil and Diane to school. It shows how big our community is here at Friends School. It’s also a good chance for the students to practice their English and social skills in a natural setting.
