Online Exchange with Japanese International School

最新消息日期

On January 13th, our Grade 6 students had an online exchange activity with Primary 6 students from Japanese International School (JIS) in Taipo.

First of all, we took turns introducing our own schools in Japanese as well as in English.

Next, the Japanese students introduced traditional Japanese games such as Kendama (剣玉), Fukuwarai (福笑い), manga and anime.

Then, our students made a Kahoot game about the Chinese New Year in Hong Kong. We introduced our traditional custom regarding Chinese New Year and the old story about the monster named Nian. It was fascinating. Finally, we taught the Japanese buddies about the New Year's greetings in Cantonese.

Our students had a lot of fun in the activities. Some said that learning a new language has made them very excited but nervous, as if riding on a roller coaster.. However, they wanted to practice more frequently so that they could communicate more effectively with their Japanese friends.

Our students put in a lot of effort practising their parts and were able to present with great confidence.

This exchange was our first valuable experience interacting with the JIS students. We hope to physically visit each other's school and have face-to-face exchange soon.
