Italian Excursion

On 26 August, Year 9 Italian students were able to have an interaction day with Year 9 Italian students at St Patrick’s College. We began the day with ice breaking activities including matching questions with answers, sorting ourselves into birthday order and asking questions to get to know each other; all in Italian. We were then split into groups and played scattergories, Italian card games, transcribing Italian sentences and translating Italian phrases. We finished off the day by watching part of an Italian movie and playing a few rounds of Kahoot and Blooket. 

Through this experience, we were able to gain new knowledge and learn from our classmates. We were also able to meet new people and participate in fun interactive activities. Additionally, we learnt how important it is to understand and communicate with one another, even if we don’t all speak the same language.
