Congratulations to Year 9 student Vivi Hobbs, winner of the GBHS Language Dept 30-Second "Intro Yourself" Challenge! 🏆🎉

As part of their language studies, Year 9s filmed creative 30-second introductions in their target language. Vivi is studying Japanese.

Viv composed and sang a song. Singing in a new language helps with learning by acting as a natural memory tool that improves pronunciation, rhythm, and vocabulary retention.

Sensei Beate says "Vivi blew us away with her song - awesome pronunciation, confidence, and flair!"
