Festival Bahasa

By Klara Holland, Year 8.

Last Thursday, the 14th of March, some of the year 8 and 9 students were lucky enough to go to the Festival Bahasa dan Budaya Indonesia (Indonesian Festival) at Deakin University. We had the Australia Indonesia Youth Association (AIYA) come and talk to us about what studying Indonesian is like. We had lots of fun. There were heaps of fun activities that we got to participate in. Special Yogyakarta dancing, playing angklung (an Indonesian instrument), learning about the Indonesian culture, and improving our Indonesian. We are very grateful our Indonesian friend’s in Melbourne making the effort to wake up at 4:30am to come down to Warrnambool to make this happen.
