３月３０日(月)

今日はyear10(高１)の日本語選択生徒35名と一緒に郊外の動物園、Caversham(カバシャム) Wildlife Parkに行きました。独自の生態系を持つオーストラリア固有種の動物を間近で見たり、触ったり、餌をやったり、地元のBHCの生徒もはしゃいでいました。host studentsも含めて日豪12グループに分かれて行動しました。行きのバス内ではBHC生徒には日本語の宿題が出されていました。Farm Showでは勇敢なBHC boyがムチ振りにチャレンジ、他に子ヤギにミルクを飲ませたり、乳しぼり体験をしました。パイソンを触ったり、コアラと写真を撮ったり、カンガルーに餌をやったり。遠足はcommunicationをとって仲を深めるとてもいい機会でした。50人の集団の移動にBHCの先生方も、一般の方に道を空けるよう頻繁に注意するなど、どこの国の学校でも同じような光景も見られました。

Today, I visited Caversham Wildlife Park with my host sister, Amy. I watched a sheep-shearing show, tried milking a cow, and I had a chance to hold a snake. Feeding hungry kangaroos was another highlight. I spent a lot of time with my group members, Bella, Sibera, Nel, and Sugyul, and it made the day truly unforgettable.
At first, I felt nervous because I was the only Japanese student in the group. However, everyone was very kind. My English is not fluent enough, but they listened to me and helped me whenever I felt confused,so I can relax soon.During our break, we had a snack party with Australian treats. We played a game similar to the Japanese game "Word Wolf," which helped us laugh and bond quickly.
By the end of the day, we had exchanged contact information and become close friends. On the bus to school, I had a deep conversation with Nel. We shared our cultures by playing a Japanese hand game, "Alps Ichimanjaku," and an Australian game called "Chopsticks." Also, we talked about our future dreams and promised to meet again when she visits Japan this December.
Today,I felt so much kindness from my new friends and created special memories together in Australia.

今日も終日host familyと過ごしました。サイクロンの影響もなくとてもいい天気です。フリーマントル、ロットネス島、キングスパークなど観光名所に連れて行ってもらった人も多いようです。

Today, I went to Rottnest Island with my host family by ferry. First, we went to Pinky beach to swim. There was a small hill that we could dive from. I cannot swim, so everyone except for me was diving in. They looked like fish. Then we went to another beach called the Basin. This is my first time to go to beach twice a day. There was a lot of fish in the beach.
After swimming, we went to a cafeteria that is famous for great pies.I ate a beef cheese pie. It was delicious. 
After that, I saw many quokkas!! They were very cute.
Then I saw a seal in another hill. I have never seen a seal outside of an aquarium.
It was such a great day.
I slept on the ferry because I was very tired and my host family went to bed at 7:30 pm.
I will go to bed early too for tomorrow????

週末はホストファミリーと過ごしています。

Today, I spent time with my host family. We went to Comic Con that was held in Perth. We wore our own costumes. My costume was Pompompurin, but actually it was a pajama. Many people were dressed up. For example, Demon Slayer, Jujutsukaisen or Spider-Man. They were very cool, so I tried to ask them to be in a photo with me. Then, I bought some souvenirs for my family and myself. I’m happy that Japanese culture is loved by many foreign people. After a while, We felt a little hungry, so we went to a restaurant called DOME. I ate sandwich there, it was delicious. At home, we had BBQ! We ate Australian beef for the first time, it was so good. After dinner, we played Domino.  It is similar to Japanese card game called “Shichinarabe”. It was a little difficult , but very fun. Then, I showed a Japanese traditional toy, kaleidoscope. Tomorrow, we will go to Rottnest Island. I’m really excited to go!

今日は1日Bob Hawke Collegeで授業を受けました。

1限はyear11(高2)の日本語の授業。数グループに分かれてBHCの生徒が校内施設を英語・日本語を交えて案内してくれました。最先端の校舎・設備に圧倒されました。図書館には日本のマンガの英語版が棚3つほどにたくさん並んでいました。その後は日本語のリスニングテスト。長めの日本語の会話を聞いて、内容に関する質問に英語で要約して答えるテストです。BHC生徒はListening、兵庫生徒はWritingで苦労しました。

2限・3限は各buddy(ホスト生徒他attendしてくれる生徒)の授業に参加しました。経済学・哲学・物理などこれはtoughです。

4限はYear10(高1)の日本語です。自己紹介と簡単な質問などを兵庫生徒は英語、BHC生徒は日本語でしました。兵庫生徒にはeasyでしたが、今日の授業の目的の半分はBHC生徒に生の日本語に触れてもらうこと。兵庫生徒全員great teacherとして貢献しました。その後はKahoot!を使ってのオーストラリア、日本についてのクイズが40問くらい。speedとaccuracyを競うクイズですが、オーストラリアでもspeed重視ですね。

5限は別のyear11の日本語。main activityはJeopardy(category別のクイズ)です。英語で答えるのは兵庫生徒、日本語で答えるのはBHC生徒、とてもexcitingです。協力して上位にひっチームはご褒美をもらいました。

1・2限の間は休憩なし、その後recess(30分の休憩、軽食タイム)、3・4限休憩なし、13:30から30分間のlunch time、14:00から5限、放課は14:55。放課後は日本と違って部活動はなく、人によっては校外のクラブチームの練習に参加したり、地元のサークル活動、ビーチに泳ぎに行く人など各自の趣味に使います。

今日はrecessの時間に歓迎会も兼ねてMorning Tea Timeを用意してくれました。vegimite rollの味は日本人にはどうだったでしょうか。井上校長のあいさつの後、giftとして英語版「終末のワルキューレ」を披露して寄贈しました。研修団リーダーのKotoneさんがジョークも交えて原稿なしでSpeech、ウケてくれました。

今日は多くの生徒と交流ができ有意義な1日だったと思います。

終末はあいにくの雨ですが、観光地に連れていく予定のhost familyも多いようです。楽しい時間を過ごしましょう。

Today I went to Bob Hawke College to study. 1st period was Japanese, and some local students showed us around the school. The school was so huge that I almost got lost, but talking with them was so fun. 

After school, my host family made “chicken and rice,” a Singapore dish. There were many kind of sauces and it tasted so good. Then we all watched a Disney movie together. They gave us so many snacks, so I had the best time. It was raining today but I still enjoyed the day a lot.

今日はBHC(Bob Hawke College)が学期末で忙しいため、研修団だけで午前は西オーストラリア大学を訪問しました。神戸大学と留学提携をしており、毎年交換留学で1年間学びに来ている学生がいます。世界大学ランキングでも上位に入るレベルの高い大学の構内を散策し、学生に声をかけるメンバーもいました。午後はパース中心街に移動し、1時間半ほどhang outしてBHCに戻りました。

We went to University of Western Australia(UWA), which is ranked in the top 100 elite schools. It was so big and very beautiful. I talked to a student of the university. She was so kind that she took me around the campus and gave me a college original diary and callender for a souvenir. I love her very much!!
Then, we moved to the central area of Perth. There were many shops including Japanese stores like Uniqlo. I thought there was something similar to Sannomiya in the main street. We bought some souvenirs.We had a great time. 
After we came back to Bob Hawke College, I joined the Japanese club that my host student belongs to. Tthere, I tried to do Japanese listening and vocabulary quizzes using a dictionary. When I saw some students study Japanese hard, I was inspired to study English harder and speak fluently.
After leaving there, I went shopping with my host family. I ate pho noodlesoup and salted caramel and cinamon pretzel as a dessert. That was so sweet and tasted good. Also, we went to a supermarket to buy ingredients for okonomiyaki. I'll cook it tomorrow with my host students.
Throughout the day I talked to many people and I found Australians are very kind and friendly.
