Our Shell and Remove students embraced the elements during their Short Ex weekend at Lake Tazawa, turning a rain-soaked forecast into an unforgettable adventure.
Undeterred by the weather, they pitched tents, cooked meals outdoors, and stayed upbeat throughout—proving that teamwork and a positive attitude go a long way. Warm hot-pot and shared noodles lifted spirits beneath the canvas, while a break in the rain brought sunshine, kayaking, and a stunning lakeside hike.
The Short Ex is a key part of our holistic education at Harrow Appi. It gives students the chance to apply the independent learning and problem-solving skills they’ve been developing throughout the year in a real-world setting. Just as importantly, it offers a unique opportunity to connect with their peers, build confidence, and continue learning beyond the classroom.
A weekend of challenge, camaraderie, and personal growth—exactly the kind of learning we value most.
