We have 11 students across Year 7 to Year 9 in Languages club this year and we have been meeting every fortnight to take part in various cultural and language activities. Languages club members are also contributing to school events such as languages week to promote languages at Catholic Regional College Caroline Springs.

The club recently made room signs both in Japanese and Italian to be put up in rooms around the college.


They have also started making Origami cranes, which are a symbol of peace in Japan, and we are planning to take them on our school trip to Japan in October.  


A highlight of the club in Term 2 was Japanese onigiri rice ball making. Students chose their favourite seasoning to put on rice and enjoyed eating lots of Onigiri! 

Students in the club absolutely love learning new languages and cultures, and we look forward to more activities together in Term 3.
