For 21 years the Australian Japan Society of Victoria has sent a
group of children accompanied by a Chaperone and Assistant
Chaperone/Peace Ambassador to participate in this Convention held in
Fukuoka, Japan each year. It is a truly unique event that allows
approximately 350 eleven-year-old children from 43 regions around the
Asian Pacific rim to share in a truly international exchange.
The children and Chaperone initially stay in a camp along with all
the other countries’ participants to participate in various activities,
before going to stay with a Japanese host family.
Additional information on the Asian-Pacific Children's Convention in
Fukuoka, Japan can be obtained from the official APCC website.
This year, Australian Souvenirs Gift Shop kindly donated 100+ Australian key rings for all participants to bring to Fukuoka. Thank you very much! (click the logo to visit them)
