　The commendation ceremony of statistics data competition was held at National Olympic Center On November 18th, 2019.  Third graders in the general course, Watanabe Ruriko and Yoshida Misaki who came second place, joined it.  The subject of their thesis is “Preparation against Nankai Trough earthquake: one in three disaster victims won’t be able to go to a shelter.  So, are medical service systems enough when the disaster happens?”
　They plotted designated evacuation centers and clinics on the map with GIS.  To prepare against Nankai Trough earthquake, they point out that current shelter distribution has blank areas and distribution of clinics is irregular within a radius of 3 km from our school.  They also suggested we should improve new shelters like kindergartens and medical systems.
