At the national stadium where the Tokyo Paralympic Games began on land, students from two junior high schools in Tokyo watched the competition on the 27th.
This is the first time for spectators to watch a game at the National Stadium through the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
At the Tokyo Olympics, the competition venues in Tokyo are held without spectators, and in principle, the Paralympics are also without spectators, but only those who wish to be elementary and junior high school students are watching the games with an emphasis on educational significance.
At the national stadium, track and field began on the 27th, and in the morning, more than 50 students from two junior high schools in Tokyo watched the competition.
This is the first time for spectators to watch a game at the National Stadium through the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
The students immediately watched the race of the 5,000-meter track and field men's visually impaired class, in which Kenya Karasawa and Shinya Wada won the silver and bronze medals.
The students, who wore masks as an infection control measure, sat at intervals between the seats and took a breather to watch the players' hard play on the track and field.
In the women's long jump, the students were happy to applaud when Chiaki Takada, who was blind, showed a leap to finish in 5th place with the support of clapping and shouts by a leading role called Caller.
