LANGUAGES WEEK ACTIVITIES
LANGUAGES WEEK ACTIVITIES
It has been a busy month for our Year 3-6 students who study Italian!
YEAR 4: Sfilate di Moda
Year 4 students have been busily learning clothing vocabulary and descriptions for their upcoming fashion parades and they cannot wait to present them to the junior classes. Students have put a lot of effort into the styling, song choices and choreography – bravissimi studenti!
YEAR 3: MANGIAMO LA PIZZA!
Year 3 students had a pizza making day working in groups to make the perfect pizza. Special thanks to our parent and grandparent helpers who made this activity possible.
PERTH MOD VISIT
Year 10 students studying Italian visited MHPS classes to talk about the advantages of doing a language in high school. The students also facilitated lots of activities and games for our students including bocce out on the oval. An enjoyable day for all!
SIENA’S DINNER
YEAR 6: Una Serata Meravigliosa al Ristorante
Our annual Siena’s dinner in Leederville took place on Wednesday, 21 August. 92 students attended the dinner and dressed elegantly for the occasion. Students enjoyed a variety of pizza and pasta dishes however, gnocchi alla napoletana was the favourite. Students should be very proud of the high standard of behaviour and manners. I hope this was a serata indimenticable (memorable night) for you all!
PASTA MAKING
YEAR 5: Pasta with Chef Valentina
Year 5 students attended a pasta making workshop run by Chef Valentina www.chefvalentina.com.au. Chef Valentina has a strong passion for traditional Italian cooking and she is very proud to introduce her Nonna’s recipes. Students learnt the art of making fresh homemade pasta and then got to sample their creation with a tasty sugo al pomodoro (tomato sauce) and parmigiano sprinkled on top. Grazie to our parent and nonni helpers – without you this wouldn’t have been possible!
Special thanks to Pisconeri Fine Foods and Wines who kindly donated the high quality ingredients.
