New Theme - Our next theme, 'Our Festivals and Holidays' will run from 3rd November (Monday) until 12th December (Friday). We have two boards relating to this theme. On 'A Time to Celebrate' you can share information about the festivals and events that are going on in your country. On 'Time Out' we are looking forward to reading about your end of year holidays – how long are they and what are you going to do? As Christmas and New Year's are coming up soon, we're sure you'll have lots to share.
Three year-round boards - 'The Question Board', 'My Favourite Things' and 'The World Today' will also reopen along with the two new boards. You can carry on your previous discussions or bring up something new. Staff from the Japan Society will post messages to you too – keep an eye out for them.
Try and send photos - If you use photos and drawings your message will be much clearer. We're sure you really enjoy seeing messages with photos. They will also make your message stand out and increase the chance of getting a reply. Go out with your camera and give it a go!
