Ten junior high school students and two English teachers from Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, visited Australia as a part of a junior global training program, and on 6 Aug they visited the CLAIR Sydney office.
Despite having only just arrived in the country, the students listened very attentively as staff of CLAIR Sydney gave a presentation on Australia and CLAIR Sydney’s activities in Australia and New Zealand. A staff from the
Japan National Tourism Organisation (JNTO) also visited the CLAIR Sydney office to give a presentation on the promotion of tourism to Japan in Australia and New Zealand.
After visiting the CLAIR Sydney office, the students and teachers visited Newcastle, the sister city of Ube City in Australia. They participated in a homestay and made friends with local students. We hope that the information they learned at CLAIR Sydney proved useful for the Ube students during their time with their Australian host families.
From the 3rd to the 13th of December, eight selected swimmers from the Fukuoka Swimming Association visited NSW, where they participated in joint training sessions with a local school and competed in the 2024-25 Speedo NSW Senior State Age Championships.
