THE JAPANESE WORD OF THE FORTNIGHT
とても (pronounced ‘totemo’) which means ‘very’ is the Japanese Word for Week 3 & 4 of Term 3. You can use ‘とても’ (‘totemo’) before adjectives. For example, if you would like to say ‘very cold’, you can say とてもさむいです (‘totemo samuides’).
Thank you / ありがとうございます (pronounced ‘aligatoh gozaimas’) for your continuing support for our Japanese program.

Valkstone Primary Music Lesson Update
Instrumental Music is off to a great start this year. Students have been learning a broad range of repertoire, from classical pieces by Bach and Mozart and movie themes like “Pirates of the Caribbean” as well contemporary songs such as “Counting Stars” and “Lean On Me”.
It's great to see the progress being made by all of the music students, and especially our Valkstone Band! Lessons are held during school time on a Monday, and we currently have places available for Flute, Violin, Keyboard, and Drums.

We are excited to be establishing a school band, which will be held on Mondays at lunchtime.
Existing Musicorp students are invited to join as a part of their fees. We are also pleased to welcome any students in the school community who are learning a brass, woodwind or string instrument outside of school.
For non-Musicorp students, there is a term fee of $55 to cover the cost of music. If you are wishing to enrol or have any further questions regarding the band program, please contact Tayla tjeal@polygongroup.com.au or 1300 858 911
