In the morning, we will learn how to read a hazard map and prepare for disasters at home. Then, we will visit the Sapporo Citizens’ Disaster Prevention Center for hands-on training in earthquake response, fire extinguishing, and more.
In the afternoon, we will move to a gymnasium to experience what it’s like to stay in an evacuation shelter and learn how to use emergency supplies.
We will also do simple stretches and exercises that can help prevent economy class syndrome while staying in a shelter.

We will hold an elementary school admission information session for foreign national families whose children will be entering elementary school in Sapporo next year or later.
We will talk about what elementary schools are like, the process of enrollment, what to prepare and so on.
After the explanation, there will be time for parents to exchange information with each other and for their children to have fun experience the school life.
*The guidance will be conducted in Japanese, English and Chinese basically.
