THE JAPANESE WORD OF THE FORTNIGHT
かんぺき (pronounced ‘kanpeki’) which means ‘perfect’ is the Japanese Word for Week 8 & 9 of Term 2.
You can use ‘かんぺき’ (‘kanpeki’) instead of ‘perfect’ when you see something done extremely well or when you are feeling perfect.
Thank you / ありがとうございます (pronounced ‘aligatoh gozaimas’) for your continuing support for our Japanese program.

FAIRYTALE FIASCO
This term in literacy grade ones have been looking at fairy tales. We have even started to plan and write our own narratives!
To help spark our imagination, on Tuesday we had a visit from Fairy Tale Fiasco. We got to go through the Dream Tunnel into Fairytale Land. We all had lots of fun dressing up, acting and helping put Fairytale Land back together.
