Konnichiwa Foxwell families!

This term, the Japanese team is excited to celebrate student achievements and encourage future engagement in sharing their language skills.

EP Language World Championships

Congratulations to the following students who will be receiving awards for their efforts in last term’s EP Language World Championships:

Over the 10 days of the competition, Foxwell students answered 60, 729 questions, earned 20, 920 points and spent 106 hours on EP! Well done Foxwell Mariners!

GCMLTAQ Language Speech Contest

An exciting opportunity for students to showcase their spoken language skills at Griffith University is coming! Each year, the GCMLTAQ Language Speech Contest is held in Term 3 and we had some great success last year with all of our competitors receiving a minimum of a Highly Commended.

To support students in being confident with their speeches, we will commence practice for this event very soon.

All interested students are encouraged to contact Ms Vickers via email (rvick20@eq.edu.au) to express their interest. Further details will be shared via Student Notices in the coming weeks.

Language support at home

With assessment dates coming, revising class notes and practising vocabulary in EP is important in supporting academic success in Japanese. Students in all year levels will complete an exam before the end of Term 2. Please see the image below with some ways you can support your child/children with preparing for their upcoming assessment.
