Japanese Students Visit Strathdon

NEWS ARCHIVE
January 2nd, 2003
  Delightful students from Japan visited the Nursing Home. They spoke a little English each; their name, hobbies and how they were enjoying their stay in Australia. They sang in both Japanese and English and residents joined them in a traditional Japanese dance. The students also demonstrated origami.

  Lots of fun was had by all and it really did go to prove that language is not a barrier when you have people who are interested in being with each other and take the time to understand.
