Wonderbus Japan is an exciting cultural project aiming to bring “Japan” to parts of Australia!

Wonderbus Japan will tour cities and towns in Australia, presenting a variety of events and activities showcasing examples of Japanese culture. The Wonderbus Japan crew will meet face-to-face with students, teachers, parents and local communities in regional Australian cities and towns, offering opportunities to people who may otherwise not have a chance to interact with Japanese culture.

It first hit in 2005. Wonderbus Japan transformed Young, Wodonga, Shepparton, Ballarat, Warrnambool and Mount Gambier into a buzzing hub of Japanese cultural activities. Since it was so enthusiastically received, it will return in May 2006! Check out our 2005 Wonderbus Japan diary
