Japanese School Festival & Volunteers

Keen to check out an authentic Japanese festival? On Saturday 8 November, the Japanese School in Perth is holding its annual bunkasai, or school festival, at its campus at 157 Deanmore Rd, Scarborough. There will be freshly cooked Japanese food and refreshments, as well as plenty of stalls and activities.

The ‘school festival’ part is from 9am – 10:40, where JSP students will be giving performances. The ‘festival proper’ starts from 11am, when the stalls will open and the air will fill with the delicious smells of Japanese cooking. You can take part in demonstrations such as kendo, origami, kendama, and plenty more.

Volunteering

The JSP is currently looking for (preferably) Japanese-speaking volunteers to help out on the day. English application forms are available as doc and pdf.

Applications are also being sought from those interested in setting up a stall on the day. Here are the application form and conditions.

Any questions? Email the JSP at info@japaneseschool.wa.edu.au or call them on 92451087.
