That's our poster!

The poster you see being held up is the one our Year 9 and 10 girls made in class with Kyoko our Foreign Language Assistant! We're absolutely thrilled that if now features in the official video of the Japan Society, a leading U.S. organization committed to deepening mutual understanding between the United States and Japan in a global context. Their Japan Earthquake relief fund is funding the Fukushima Kids Project where we sent our poster to. The Fukushima Kids Project enables children who live near the nuclear reactor to go on holidays away from home.
