Fireflies Around Midori Elementary School
The more than 80 year-old Midori Elementary School in Kaminada, Futami-cho, Iyo City is known for being the oldest wooden school building still in service in the prefecture. Local activists have worked to conserve the local firefly population. Each year the Hotaru no Sato Futami Firefly Festival is held at the school and in the surrounding area in early June every year.
