St.Mary’s Report 〜オーストラリア・ホームステイ第10日目
- 英語を活かすプログラム
- 国際交流・海外研修
- ホームステイも残すところあと4日、学校ではあと３日です。Thank-you cardをお世話になった友達や先生に渡す準備も万端。英語での会話にもすっかり慣れて、ホームフォームでも日本語は聞こえません。
さて、今日は生徒たちの通う St. Mary’sの紹介です。カソリックの共学校で全校生徒は約900名。今学期にちょうど図書館がリニューアルされてとても快適な空間になっていました。中では生徒たちが英語の授業を受けたり、調べ物をしたりしており、本校の生徒も混じって授業を受けていました。写真は図書館の入り口の様子です。
また、生徒たちがランチやスナックを買えるタック・ショップも紹介します。飲み物やサンドイッチ
、ピザ、ホットドッグ、ハンバーガー、パイ、サラダ、アイスクリームなどもあります。加えてなんと、お寿司もありました。スタッフの皆さんと中の様子です。
- 日本語の先生はメリッサ先生とダニエル先生。写真はダニエル先生です。生徒たちがとてもお世話になりました。今日の日本語の授業は、二人の会話を映像に撮るものでした。写真はその時の様子です。動画も「在校生・保護者の方へ」に入れますので、関係者の方はご覧ください。
今日のホームステイ・ジャーナルを引用します。びっしりと書いたのものにそれぞれの教員が添削とコメントをします。

I am getting the ability to understand spoken English little by little. But I cannot speak it yet. I do not understand it yet. I went to the big park with my buddy and her brother. There were a lot of playground equipment there which I had never seen.

Today I had two Japanese classes for year 8. They were so powerful and practicing Japanese pronunciation hard. I was very glad. After school, I watched “Bohemian Rhapsody” for my first time. It was a very good movie. Tomorrow we are going to do some sports. Yeah!!

I cooked a risotto at hospitality class. I cut some vegetables. It tasted very good. I wanted to buy this one. I took a math class. I could not understand a question. But my friend taught it to me. Finally I was able to understand it. She was very kind. SMCC students are very kind. Many people talked to me. I was happy.

I wrote some thank-you cards. When I was writing them, I was so sad. I decided that I would have more fun on another day.

Today I played basketball, too. My buddy’s brother is good at it. There was Japanese class at school today. We taught how to do origami. It was fun!

My host family and I watched a survivor show on TV. They like it. It was funny. My favorite member is Luke. But it is shown only in Australia. so I am sad.

After school I ate some chicken soup, cheese pie and serial! Today my host dad made a forest fire. He is a ranger. A forest fire is important to plants. When I heard this, I was very surprised. Tomorrow Maki and I are going to distribute our thank-you cards. I am afraid of my farewell party speech because it must be learned by heart within two left days. I am very very very nervous before it.
