Their participation highlighted the successful cultural exchange and learning experiences facilitated by this program.
Members of the Broome Japanese community and the Broome Shire Council were also present at the event. The Shire President and the CEO kindly gave our students ambassadors the opportunity to learn about council meetings and provided a tour of the Council Chambers.
