Year 8 Students Teach French to Juniors

In Term 2 at Hillcrest, students in Mme Evans’ Year 8 French class were tasked with planning and constructing educational games, to teach French vocabulary to younger students. The group of Year 8s embraced the challenge, and produced interactive board games, colouring and activity books, and paint boards.

This formed part of their Term assessment and was completed on Friday 14 June, when the Year 8s presented their activities to Mme Faulkner’s Year 3 class. The Year 8 students involved were Ella van Bruggen, Lucy Winter, Seth Carlton, Olivia Karger, Lilly Rotunno, Marnie Rienecker, Charlotte Blackwell, Mathayus Mata’afa, Fred Hanna, Quezon Tahere, Josh Nicholson, Maeli Tapper and Lilyaan Ada.

The Presentation Day was enjoyed by all involved, and provided a unique opportunity for the Year 8 students to showcase their creativity, while testing the success of their educational resources on the Year 3 students.
