August 2017
Consulate-General of Japan in Perth
On August 4, Cockburn City’s 32nd annual Hiroshima Day was held at Cockburn’s Botany Park, and was attended by Mayor Howlett and Consul-General Hirayama. The city of Cockburn holds this event to pray for worldwide peace, and this year’s ceremony was marked with the release of white doves, and students from around Cockburn City planting 17 elm trees.
Following the ceremony, the participants returned to the city council, where primary school students tried their hand at making origami cranes, and a reading of “Story of the Peace Crane” about Sadako Sasaki was held.
