Summertime
For many teachers in Japan, the start of August marks the beginning of a well deserved rest after a busy spring term. We wish all our customers a restful summer season and the chance to recharge for the coming fall. For us too, summer is a chance to recharge. So please note that the Abax office will be closed from August 11 - 15. But other that, we'll be here to help you with your materials decisions and any inquiries you may have. A great summer to all!
