These are difficult times and it has been a long process bringing these to you but JSANZ takes the greatest pleasure in finally announcing the JSANZ Japanese Firsts Award winners. There are seven winners over five categories. Not all of the 10 categories received nominations but there were many nominations for the five winning categories. If you missed out this time please try again next year as we would love to see all deserving Japanese stakeholders, teachers, and students recognised. Each winner will receive a print version of their poster to display in their classroom and office. Congratulations. Your awards are very well-deserved.
