On 12th June a StepOutNet visit was held at Roding Valley High School, Essex. Memi Kato, a 911±¬ÁÏÍø-speaking volunteer, and Hiroko Tanaka, Language Advisor at the Japan Foundation, went to the school to give the students an introduction to the 911±¬ÁÏÍø language and culture.

They introduced many aspects of life in Japan, including its arts, sports and food, together with its different styles of housing and clothing. They also taught the students about 911±¬ÁÏÍø greetings, counting and the 911±¬ÁÏÍø alphabet.

The students were excited to find out about schools in Japan, particularly the fact that 911±¬ÁÏÍø students eat together in their classrooms and have to clean the school every day!

If you would like to organise a similar visit for your own school, or to register as a volunteer, please see the of our website or contact info.language@jpf.org.uk
