Each Saturday I attend Italian classes for 2 hours at Co.As.It. I have been studying since I was in Kindergarten.<\/p>\n<p>My teacher nominated me as she felt that my effort I put into the language was always consistent and after coming back from Italy last year my conversational Italian had improved.<\/p>\n<p>My family background is also Italian. My father is from Rome and my mother is from Sicily. I enjoy learning the language as it could one day help with job opportunities and to also be able to converse with my family overseas or if one day I would like to travel to Europe it comes in handy.<\/p>\n<h5><em><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-22403\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/09\/Lucia-Naticchia-116x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"116\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/09\/Lucia-Naticchia-116x150.jpg 116w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/09\/Lucia-Naticchia.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 116px) 100vw, 116px\" \/>Lucia Naticcia<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Year 7<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to Year 7 student, Lucia&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":22406,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-22380","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/22380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22380"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
