TERM 1 UPDATE

Year 7 Indonesian

This term our Year 7 students have been introduced to the country, culture and language.
Many of our Year 7 students have come from primary schools that have studied Indonesian, so our main goal is introduce our new students and engage all students in our program.
To enhance their knowledge of the country, our students have just completed their first assessment task, a research task on the country of Indonesia.

Year 8 Indonesian
This term our Year 8 students have been focusing on grammar, to enhance their understanding of the sentence structure and build on their writing skills, as well as the topic of sports and hobbies (olahraga dan hobi).
During the last couple of weeks, the students have been working on their sport or hobby club poster, as their assessment task, as well as looking at the Indonesian sport of Sepak Takraw by playing a modified version of the game, hacky sack.

Year 9&10 Indonesian

The first term has seen the 9&10 group expanding their knowledge and vocabulary. Specifically, the class has been focusing on religion (Agama) and research events and celebrations within the Indonesian culture.

Next term, we see our sister school students from SMANSA in Lombok come over to stay with their host families and experience life in Australia. This is an exciting time for our Indonesian program, and we can’t wait to share this with our community.
