The postcard of Tomoka Shimamura, a sixth-grade elementary school student from Kami City, Kochi Prefecture, who was selected for the prize, had an illustration addressed to her good-natured grandfather. I am sorry for being cute.
Rena Masuda, a third-year senior high school student in Nankoku City, awarded the Excellence Award, apologizes to her mother for her rebellion, but spells the gratitude she raised with affection. Please wait! "
Mr. Masuda said, "I was surprised because I never thought I would be chosen. I will go out of the prefecture for employment in the spring, but I want to work hard and give back to my mother a lot."
