7/4 and 7/11 Flower Road Project
The students summarized the creation and background of the slogans to be posted on Flower Road. The aim of each team is to complete the content spreadsheet and slides for the presentation. The background of the slogan should be related to Toyoake City and they should use their own feelings about Toyoake City as the background.
Students who choose the Okinawa course as their study trip destination will carry out the “Flower Road Project," an ongoing project based on community and social contribution activities, environmental conservation activities, and community collaboration. The project will involve placing planters with slogans promoting understanding and awareness of the SDGs from the perspective of town and community development along the school route from Zengo Station to the vicinity of the Seven-Eleven Toyoake Sakaemachi store. At the slogan sharing event, students shared their slogans with classmates and collaborating organizations participating in the project, and received advice and feedback from the collaborating organizations on the content.
One particular group chose the slogan, “Creating a society where people join hands beyond language and culture.” This relates to SDG goal 10 to eliminate inequality between people and countries. There are about 2,700 foreign residents living in Toyoake City, which accounts for about 4% of the total population, making it one of the highest rates in the prefecture. The Japanese language ability of foreign children and students varies greatly from person to person, so detailed support is necessary. In addition, some foreign residents, not just children, do not fully understand Japanese, which means they are unable to obtain the information they need for daily life and are unable to receive the services they should be receiving.
