Sick Room Type:Unframed Brown Mountain rises behind it

Brown Mountain rises behind it as a wall of eucalypt forest

Sunlight falls across the empty stage of Ogurawa Elementary and Middle School

Metal filing cabinets stand in a derelict room

its front verandah half-consumed by encroaching shrubs

Dust-covered tables and chairs remain in the restaurant of the former Balmain Leagues Club

Sick Room Type:Unframed Brown Mountain rises behind itAn empty stretcher sits in the sick room of Family School Fureai, dust settled across a forgotten pillow and scattered medical supplies. The room was part of a reinforced concrete three storey building that opened in 1975 as Yubari Municipal Asahi Elementary School, converted to group lodging by Yubari Kanko Kaihatsu Co., Ltd. in the mid 1990s, and abandoned after the company's bankruptcy in 2007. Part of the Family School Fureai series.
