Hello, everyone! We are Japanese junior high school students from Obama City in Fukui.

We will go to Tokyo on a school trip for 3 days to advertise Obama City. We are going to sell food and goods from Obama at Daikokuya in Asakusa in Tokyo.

Obama is famous for sea food, especially saba. Saba is mackerel in English. Saba is very healthy and popular in Japan now. We will sell food like canned and grilled saba from Obama.

Obama is also famous for chopsticks. You can experience making chopsticks by yourselves on that day. I hope everyone will buy them!

We also want to help many people around the world. So this is a charity event! Please come to our shop and buy food from Obama!

We are looking forward to meeting you. See you!

私たちは福井県小浜市出身の日本人中学生です。
小浜市の宣伝のために3日間修学旅行で東京に行きます。

私たちは東京の浅草で小浜からの商品を売るつもりです。

小浜はシーフード、特にさばで有名です。
マカレルは英語で言うとサバです。
サバは今とても健康的で日本で人気があります。
私たちは、小浜の缶詰や焼きサバ寿司を販売します。
小浜市はお箸でも有名です。
あなたはその日、自分で箸を作る経験をすることができます。
みんなが買ってくれることを願っています。
私たちはまた、世界中の多くの人々を助けたいです。
これはチャリティーイベントです。
私たちの店に来て、小浜で食べ物を買ってください。
私たちはあなたに会えるのを楽しみにしています。
じゃあね。

フェイスブックイベント情報

The above was written by my awesome students in their words. I want them to show what they can do and challenge themselves to speak in English outside our school environment in a natural and very real setting: a charity shop! They will learn fantastic skills and invaluable experience on their school trip and proudly share our local products. And hopefully have a lot of fun doing so!

100% of all proceeds will be donated to charity. (We are finalizing the local charity, so as soon as it's done, I'll link the relevant information.)

Please share and spread the word! I hope to see you there! Thank you very much!

Our school, Obama Daini Junior High School:
http://edu.city.obama.fukui.jp/obama-j2/

Allow me to introduce our school, Obama Daini Junior High School. Established in 1955, we are a public junior high school with about 500 students and 40 teachers and various support staff. We are also commonly called, “Nichu,” which means “second junior high school” of the city.

This year, our third grade students will visit Tokyo soon this may for their school trip. While it is only for three days, they will have plenty of fun and educational activities scheduled. One of which, of course, is this pop-up shop on Wednesday, May 15th! Mark it on your calendars!
