In Chuo-ku, Tokyo, where the Olympic and Paralympic Olympic Villages are built, there is concern that traffic will be congested during the competition period, affecting the coastal school that the school will run. Junior high school next summer will be put forward eight days.

During the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games next year, there are concerns about traffic congestion due to the movement of many people including athletes, people involved, and spectators.

At elementary and junior high schools in Chuo-ku, where the athlete village is built, children travel on chartered buses during summer vacations during seaside schools and club activities.

Because of this, there are concerns about the effects of delays in arrival due to traffic jams, so the Chuo Ward Board of Education will change the summer vacation period for all public kindergartens and elementary and junior high schools in the city only next year. I decided.

Specifically, the beginning and end of summer vacation is 8 days ahead of the normal year, from July 13 to August 23, and the second semester starts from August 24.

As a result, many elementary and junior high schools are expected to be able to conduct seaside schools by the start of the Olympics.

According to the Chuo Ward Board of Education, it is the first time in the 23 wards to change the time of summer holidays such as public schools with the Olympics.
