In R-1class, we have learnt about the Star Festival “Tanabata”. This is the traditional story that had been passed on from China long time ago. Japanese people celebrate by decorating the bamboo trees and write a wish to put it on the tree. Students made a lantern to decorate their bamboo tree and wrote a wish to put on it.

Y2-4 class completed their own “The Hungry ~~~” book in Japanese. They all have worked very well and had created a bilingual original story book.

Y5/6 have completed their weather forecast video clip. It will be sent home through the Daymap shortly.

Y7/8 have been learning about the history and the tradition of “rice”. To complete this units, students have made some rice balls.

I hope everyone will have a safe and relaxing school holiday.
