The winner of the competition, earning an impressive 5,529 points was..... Vicci Angelle Montederamos in 9E! 

Angelle was awarded two free tickets to the Box Hill Japan Festival held on 21st May. A short reflection from Angelle:

After a three-year absence due to the pandemic, attending the Japan Festival this year was especially amazing. Despite the hype and long lines, it was worth it. We witnessed captivating performances, including a drum show. While the crowd rushed to the raffles, food stalls, and bustling shops in the lower hall, we indulged in various activities like crafting origami cranes, reading Japanese literature, admiring train models, and observing a serene tea ceremony.

Closely following Angelle were our other medal winners:
