On 3 Oct, we departed from ONCT in the morning to visit TOTO Oita Factory where we had a chance to see the showers, toilet bowls, sinks and many more... We were given a nice pamplet and were briefed about the factory.. Questions from my group members were also being answered by the person in charge as well.... After the briefing, we went to look around at the factory... It was facinating as we saw how they exactly make a tape faucet... Apparently TOTO is targeting markets such as the US and hence, their showers and bath tubs are really expensive...

We went back to the school for lunch and some of the students from ONCt accompanied us to the traditional bamboo crafts centre at Beppu City... We got to see stuff being made by bamboo such as chairs, bags, toys, tables, lamps etc... We also made our very own bell..

After that, we went back to ONCT where the farewell party commenced. There was a farewell address by both the Oita side and Singapore side. We also took turns to present our memorable events with around 10 photos that we took during our trip.. Mr Lee also received a token of appreciation from the principal of ONCT... We students were also given a photo of ourselves which was taken during the Fukuoka Airport... Our host families also wrote comments on a small whiteboard to everyone of us... Awww... We took the chance to ask the students for their contacts as well...

At night, it was our sport recreation.... Instead of playing volleyball, we were split into 2 teams : Basketball and Captain's Ball.... We taught them how to play Captain's Ball and had loads of fun.. We even taught them how to play monkey and it was great seeing all of us having so much fun together even though we come from a different country...

It was our last day to stay in the dorm... and I will really miss that place!!
