Fukuyama Junior and Senior High School Attached to Hiroshima University, National co-educational Junior and Senior High School in Japan attached to Hiroshima University
Fukuyama Junior and Senior High School is a school in Fukuyama offering education for students at middle and high school levels while connected to Hiroshima University. The campus features large green fields and mature trees, with simple but well-maintained buildings where students move between classrooms, laboratories, and common learning spaces during the day.
The school was established in 1951, combining earlier boys and girls schools in the area into one institution. In 1973 it moved to its current location, where the new campus near a park and small river provided better facilities and more space for students and staff.
The school uses an olive branch as its symbol, representing peace and friendship with roots in a long history. This symbol shapes school life and appears during the annual Olivet Festival, where students present their work, perform music and dance, and celebrate together.
The school campus is easy to navigate on foot, with large green fields and mature trees structuring the grounds. The quiet location in Fukuyama near a park and river makes it straightforward to visit and enjoy the surroundings.
Unlike traditional Japanese schools, this institution has no bells or chimes to signal class changes, promoting self-discipline and responsibility among students. This distinctive approach encourages students to manage their time independently and think for themselves.
