Japanese

St Kieran's Primary School offers an exciting and progressive Japanese program which introduces students to the language and culture of Japan.  Students from Prep to Year Six learn Japanese once a​ week, with an emphasis on listening and speaking. Language classes provide a lively and stimulating environment, where students enjoy communicating in Japanese through role plays, interviews, songs and language games. Students are introduced to hiragana characters (which form the Japanese alphabet) and continue to read and write the script throughout the school.​​
