Japanese students at Georgiana Molloy Anglican School have sent postcards to students in Busselton's sister city Sugito in Japan.
GMAS Japanese teacher Tracey Smith is coordinating the project titled Postcards from Busselton to help lift the spirits of students in Sugito who have experienced a lengthy COVID-19 lockdown.
Ms Smith said students in Japan were allowed to go to school to study the bare minimum such as math's, Japanese and science, then had to return home.
"They do not get to go to their club activities anymore," she said.
"In Australia, some kids play sport for a club. In Japan, if you are enrolled in a school you do something whether it is art, sport or a cultural activity.
"They can not do any of that at the moment, they go to school do the basics then go home, they are basically isolated.
"The mums and dads still have to go to work but the kids cannot stay a full day at school, there are little kids staying at home and it just breaks your heart really.
"We wanted to be able to fill the social isolation and hope to help the Japaense students know that people outside were thinking of them."
Student Ysabeau Wilson said she would write that she was thinking of the students and that even though they were going through a hard time it would pass over.
"I will write about how I really like their culture and look up to Japanese people, because I really do love their culture and I really hope to visit Japan one day once COVID-19 blows over," she said.
"Japan is so diverse there is much to it, I really love their mythical creatures and superstitions, also their stories."
Student Miles Gill hoped to make the students laugh by sharing jokes and telling them a bit about life in Busselton.
Allegra Leaman wanted to send encouragement to the Japanese students and let them know that they were being thought of.
"It would be pretty hard I do not know how I would deal with it if I could not talk to my friends face-to-face and missing out on social interaction," she said.
