Experiencing real life Japanese is an integral part of the IB course and the students demonstrated their open-minded inquiry skills by embracing the opportunity and seeking a deeper understanding of the Japanese language in context. The workshop took place in a traditional Japanese style building, which began with an engaging introduction from Mieko sensei and Taka sensei who demonstrated the correct way to take off your shoes and enter the genkan (entrance). From the moment they arrived the students were spoken to exclusively in Japanese and encouraged to reach out of their comfort zone. It was a full and busy day which was exhausting; however, the experience was a memorable one which was enjoyed and beneficial to all participants.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u2013 Natasha Collins<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nLanguages Teacher<\/p>\n<p><em>Click on the image gallery to view full-sized images.<\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-1\" class=\"gallery galleryid-23591 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium\">\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image002.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image002-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image009.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image009-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image008.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image008-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image007.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image007-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image006.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image006-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image005.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image005-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image004.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image004-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image003.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image003-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"gallery-item link-\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image001.png\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2023\/02\/image001-640x640.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Year 11 and Year 12 Japanese IB students had a wonderful full day excursion at the Nihongo Tanken Centre in December 2022.
