Activities to celebrate Childrens Day in Japan

'Team Orkney' is local small group promoting Japanese language and culture in Orkney which was established from links formed between Orkney company Aquatera and a secondary school in the tsunami affected area of Japan.
They are promoting cultural links between Orkney and Japan and have organised a series of fun activities in the library on Saturday 6th May between 10am and 4pm to celebrate Childrens Day in Japan. This will include Traditional musicians, a karate demonstration, origami, calligraphy, tasting Japanese food and dressing up in Japanese clothes.

To support Childrens Day in Japan we will be flying a special flag called a KOI NOBORI on Friday 5th May. Click here for more information
