Overview
The Year 10 Japanese Course aims to further develop and expand student's previous knowledge of Japanese. Students will explore situations and events associated with the main themes of Teenagers and the Local Neighbourhood.
Over the year, students expand their language skills to include themes such as fashion trends, festivals and celebrations, leisure activities, part time work and their local community. Students, now well versed in hiragana and katakana, will develop their kanji reading and writing skills.
Highlights of Year 10 typically include festivals, examining the influence of Japan in our local community, restaurant outings and many short skits around shopping.
