School Visit Programme

Outline of the programme

Through its School Visit Programme, the Consulate-General of Japan in Auckland aims to provide opportunities for New Zealand school students to learn more about Japan. A school visit by staff from the Consulate Public Relations Section can further students knowledge of the language and culture of Japan. Japanese language need not necessarily be part of the curriculum, however, as the Consulate also visits schools covering Japan as a general topic.

The Consulate has a variety of traditional artifacts, posters, slides and DVDs designed to give students a vivid impression of life in Japan. When planning a school visit, Consulate staff members consult with teachers to decide on suitable topics for the visit, so that it can be tailored to their requirements as much as possible. The content of a school visit may be designed to consolidate work that students have done already in class or to act as a catalyst for a new area of study.

In some cases, schools visit the Consulate office in Albert Street as part of a field trip that may include a visit to Japanese restaurants and shops in the city.
