The children of Yumenomori also wrote messages on their cheering flags. "Do your best to aim for the gold medal. Fight!" "We are cheering for you from Okuma Town!" "We want to see you win the gold medal!" "Achieve the first great feat in Japanese history and inspire the whole of Japan!" "Do your best to become the world's ace," "Don't lose to yourself," "World No. 1!" "Do your best and give it your all."

What kind of feelings will you have after pursuing what you love?
In comprehensive studies, children choose research themes based on their "likes" and "interests" and work hard on them.
It's not all fun and games, and sometimes things don't go as planned.
To find out what lies beyond that, first take action!
Their efforts inspire those around them. And, although we don't know why, we just want to cheer them on!
The local community, family, friends, and teachers are all cheering on the children! First of all, we want them to cherish the spirit of taking on new challenges!
