Mandarin (Languages Other Than English)

Our LOTE program is run weekly by our Mandarin teacher Mrs Yu. Students from Years 1-6 complete a weekly lesson. Students will engage in speaking, reading, writing and cultural activities in Mandarin.

Our Chinese program is designed to include a wide range of learning experiences with real-life connections. Students are engaged in learning cultural aspects of China, involving the location, food and special celebrations. Students learn to speak words and phrases in Mandarin, based on engaging topics such as greetings, numbers, families, animals, all about me and etc. The senior students learn how to write Chinese characters using pinyin and strokes.
