Hey all
Next year in early March, 11 students from Kobe Gakuin University will be coming to Singapore for 3 days to do a project on Singapore’s Racial Harmony.
We have been tasked to help these students in their project. Basically, we have to do correspondence in Facebook with them and probably bring them to some of Singapore sites to show them the different races and cultures in Singapore. This would be a good opportunity for you to experience Singapore Cultures, exchange cultural facts with the Japanese or make new Japanese friends!
Registration is on first-come-first-served basis. So hurry up and register with your friends! (Groups of 3 preferred!)
If you’re interested, please email Kubo-sensei at kuboy@tp.edu.sg with your full name, matric number, school, year of study, and contact number by 22nd December 2009.
SEAL points will be awarded for participation.
