Full speed ahead.

Welcome back to Term 3 and it has been a full on week 1. We were lucky enough to be visited by Tracey Hickman from Swimming NZ and her friend 'Koru the Kiwi' who had some fantastic dance moves. With the sun shining and more and more NZ children heading to the water to cool down Tracey explained the importance of learning how to swim and how to keep yourself and your family safe in the water, whether that be in a pool, at the beach or on a boat.
We also welcomed 15 and 16 year old students from Tokorozawa Kita who responded with singing their school song and showing us a dance.  Then showed us how to write some symbols in Kanji. It was very interactive with a number of children writing Kanji using authentic calligraphy quills and ink. Afterwards the children got a lot of autographs from the Tokorozawa students. The students must have felt like celebrities.
