- [Introduction]
- Hirano Elementary is located at the center of Otsu, and has a long history
of 121 years since built.
We can be characterized by our laying stress on environment studies,
anti-stereotype education, and information oriented education.
Inside the school building is a large pen, and children carry out everyday
duties as keepers of the creatures inside it.
The anti-stereotype education, in which the TT program extra teachers play
central roles, is also treated with emphasis.
As for the information oriented education, with the aim to become "a hand made
intelligent school", all classes have been connected to the Internet and
the connections have already been in operation for some time.
