Let’s help our juniors develop
into capable individuals
who surpass us in ability!
Studying and taking action
together with them with such
deep, earnest resolve will
spark the greatest inspiration!

Beware of summer fatigue!
Eat well, sleep well and exercise
during cooler times of the day.
Lead a sensible and healthy lifestyle.
Stay cheerful and resilient, despite
the heat.
