Basic rules of conduct that children must follow

In Japan, before the school year begins, parents are given a list of basic rules of conduct that children must follow:

  • Listen carefully when someone is talking.
  • Greet others in a friendly manner and respond loudly and clearly.
  • Understand that what belongs to others is not yours.
  • Take off your shoes before entering and put them in the designated place.
  • Sit straight in your chair.
  • Always wear clean, neat, and ironed clothes.
  • Keep your desk and surroundings tidy and clean.
  • Go to bed early and wake up on time.
  • Eat a balanced breakfast.
  • Don't forget to brush your teeth.
  • Never lie.
  • Never leave a classmate alone.
  • Help those who are in trouble.
  • Don't speak badly of others.
  • Learn to get along with everyone, play, and study together.
  • Don't play alone; learn to play with others.
  • Play outside to be stronger and enjoy nature.
  • If you make mistakes, apologise sincerely.
