Abstract
About a half of the primary schools in Nagoya, exactly 113, are adjacent to the public gardens across a street, in order to use the place of refuge since the postwar reconstruction period. The eight school gardens of these primary schools were combined with the public gardens by disuse the roads between both gardens, and reformed to the public-school garden complexes. Both the schoolmasters and the head teachers answered to the oral questions about the availability of the public-school garden complexes. They felt the responsibility of the administration without school hours and wanted for the exclusive use of the primary schools. In order to increase the availability of the public-school garden complex, the heads of the community, the primary school, and the parent association planed three times workshops to know the nature and history of the community. Many habitants joined these workshops.
