On 27 July, we attended a special dinner orgnaised by Hurstville City Council that welcomed the visiting exchange students from their sister city, Shiroishi City in Japan.
The cities have been conducting a mutual students’ exchange program for over 20 years. This year, 10 students and 2 chaperons visited from Shiroishi.
During the dinner, the students showed the attendees “Rakugo” and “calligraphy”. Rakugo is Japanese sit-down comedy. They also taught attendees how to do calligraphy and they deepened exchanges.
We are sure that this exchange programme offers them a great experience.
