This year the Year 5 and 6 students have been learning Japanese and Mandarin with specialist language teachers from Orewa College. The goal has been to foster language learning at an earlier age to support student literacy and encourage the development of Asian language learning and cultural awareness.
We were invited today to a cultural event at Orewa College to celebrate our language and cultural learning and to experience different aspects of the cultures we have studied.
