Between 31 July – 7 August, 10 Ube junior high school students and two principals visited Newcastle (which is Ube’s sister city) to deepen their cross-cultural understanding and the international relationship through homestay, attending a local school, and taking English lessons.
They dropped into our office before going to Newcastle. We talked to them about the Australian way of life and about CLAIR’s activities. Also, we exchanged opinions about overseas work postings and life outside of Japan – to which they paid great attention! We hope that one day they will participate in cross-border activities like we do.
