We attended the Pre-Departure Orientations for 36 new JET participants, held by the Consulate General of Japan in Sydney and Perth.At each orientation, the representatives from the establishment extended congratulations to the new JET participants and conveyed their best wishes for their success in Japan. JET Programme coordinators also provided explanations regarding travel to Japan and important precautions. The CLAIR Sydney staff members explained the role of CLAIR in the JET Programme and the training and support we offer to them. Members of each JETAA chapters offered valuable information and advice on various aspects of life in Japan, including some tips for maintaining good health and well-being, managing financial matters, learning Japanese, and preparing for potential emergencies. Moreover, they introduced the array of activities that JETAA engages in and fostered connections with them to establish strong relationships.
We were genuinely impressed by the enthusiasm and excitement showed by the participants as they prepared for their upcoming journeys, demonstrated through their active participation and numerous inquiries.

  • To investigate environmental countermeasures, a student and her chaperone from Hikone Technological High School of Shiga Prefecture visited Australia from late July to early August. CLAIR Sydney conducted a briefing on 29 July about Australia’s culture and customs, and accompanied the group to a company visit in Brisbane on 31 July, where the company, known for producing products using a type of seaweed called Asparagopsis, shared insights into their research and production processes.

    During the visit, they received information on efforts to reduce methane emissions from livestock using Asparagopsis, viewed from a carbon-neutral perspective. The student’s proactive participation in the meetings, driven by a desire to engage in environmental initiatives in the future, was impressive.

    In addition to the briefing and accompaniment, we also reached out to the company to request a representative to discuss their Asparagopsis research. CLAIR Sydney will continue to support the activities of Japanese local governments conducting research on topics related to Australia.
