PTA会長を務めて4年目の集大成。学校や地域、PTAの仲間たちと一生懸命準備して、やりたい企画をすべて実行に移しました。

大変だったけれど、とてもとても楽しかったです。
学校や地域の皆様も喜んでくださり、まちが一体になるのを感じました。

PTAに携わらなかったら出会えなかった人たちとの出会いに、心から感謝しています。そのような素敵な出会いがあることを知らずに、食わず嫌いでPTAから遠のくのはもったいない、可能性を秘めた組織です。

問題は、短期間で人が入れ替わり、しっかり運営する人がいないことと、時間や労力ばかりとられるネガティヴなイメージだと思います。

この魅力に気づいて、楽しく取り組む人が増えるよう願っています。

A commemorative ceremony was held at a city elementary school.
This was the culmination of my fourth year as PTA president.
I worked very hard with the school, the community, and my PTA colleagues to prepare for the event and put all the plans we wanted to make into action.

It was a lot of work, but very, very fun.
Everyone at the school and in the community was very happy, and I felt that the town came together as one.

I am truly grateful for the people I met that I would not have met if I had not been involved in the PTA. I believe that it would be a shame for people to walk away from the PTA without knowing that such wonderful encounters exist, and that it is an organization with a lot of potential.

The problem is that there is no one to manage the PTA properly due to the short turnover of staff, and the negative image of the PTA as a time-consuming and labor-intensive organization.

I hope that more people will realize the appeal of PTA and get involved.
