Eighteen students from Japanese classes went to Japan during the Term 3/4 holiday and visited our sister schools, Kurume Shinai high school and Shinagawa Girls school. Each student got a lovely homestay family and experienced life in Japan.
Highlights from the trip include cultural experiences with homestay families, Tokyo Skytree, Shrines, Temples, trying new foods and sharing special moments creating life long memories.
"An experience I won't forget!"
"I actually lived in a shrine!"
"I genuinely loved seeing how different other cultures could be compared to my life in New Zealand."
"they put corn and tuna on pizza and that they go to sleep really late in the night, usually at midnight."
"I also taught my family some English slang, in return, they taught me Japanese slang!"
