The Program
All students at Rose Park Primary School attend Japanese lessons. Most students will receive around 100mins of Japanese instruction per week.
The Japanese program at RPPS is based on the rationale that language learning should be fun and meaningful. Therefore, all Japanese lessons include a balance of interactive games, songs and activities and teacher led instruction time. There are opportunities for younger students to learn through play.
Students learn hiragana and some katakana and kanji as well as oral and aural communication and are encouraged to gain a cultural perspective which helps them to examine the differences and similarities between Australia and Japan.
Niki Chambers is the Japanese teacher. For further information about the Japanese program please contact her at the school or email niki.chambers@roseparkps.sa.edu.au
