Invited Ambassador to Japan Moroke, Republic of Botswana, to hold an international understanding class!

　On Friday, June 24, we invited Ambassador Hozileen Morake, the Republic of Botswana, to Chigasaki Elementary School to conduct an international understanding class.
　The exchange between Tsuzuki Ward   Chigasaki Elementary School and the Republic of Botswana started with the 4th International Conference on African Development held in Yokohama in 2008, and has continued to this day.
　When the ambassador entered, elementary school studenｔ (160 people) welcomed me with Botswana's national anthem and recorder performance, and applause was sent from members of the embassy.
　After an ale from Director General, the children attended a lecture on Botswana from Ambassador Morake and Secretary Kateho. He listened enthusiastically, took notes, and replied cheerfully that he had a throw.
　Thanks to the lecture, the ambassador gave an origami work made for each class, and the ambassador gave a bracelet made of Botswana's flag and a bracelet made of Botswana cloth, and the children were shining.
　The children will start working on the painting to be sent to Ben Tema Elementary School in the Republic of Botswana. The Tsuzuki-Botswana Exchange Children's Drawing Exhibition, where visitors can appreciate the pictures drawn by elementary school studenｔ from both countries, will be held in the Republic of Botswana in November and Yokohama from December to March. Please look forward to it!
