There are many well-researched benefits
to learning another language. Among the top ten reasons for learning another
language are the ability to communicate and connect with people from other
cultures, gaining a different perspective of the world and the development of
problem-solving skills.
Japan remains an important trade
partner for Australia and one of our closest Asian neighbours, making Japanese
a valuable language to learn.
In Japanese lessons, students learn to
speak, read, write and understand Japanese language. They investigate the
culture and customs of Japan. Prior to COVID-19 our study of Japanese was enriched by the annual
visit of students from Chiba Kita High School, our sister school in Japan.
