Consulate Activities

　　　On April 13, consulate staff members participated in Queen Ka’ahumanu Elementary School’s “Community Day.” Every year, community members from organizations such as the State Capitol, the Honolulu Police Department, the Royal Hawaiian Band and more come together to share with students about the role of the Japanese Consulate. At the Consulate table this year, staff displayed miniature models of Himeji Castle and Itsukushima Shrine, World Heritage Sites in Japan. Staff also demonstrated origami and kendama, and the students enjoyed folding paper airplanes and kabuto (Japanese samurai helmet) and playing with the kendama.
