Origami Cranes - Free Activity - Friday 15th August
Make your own origami crane to commemorate the 80th anniversary of VJ Day.
The tradition of folding paper cranes as a symbol of peace, hope, and remembrance was inspired by the story of Sadako Sasaki - a young girl who, after being exposed to radiation from the Hiroshima bombing, folded paper cranes in the hope of recovery.
Cranes will be added to a display in Bourne Hall.
