a memorable

international

week

rom July 24th to 28th, 2023, the Kuen Cheng High School Japanese Language Society,
Korean Language Club, and the French Club jointly held an international week that
Fwas an unforgettable experience for the students. One of the activities that makes the
students linger is the station game at the parking lot near Block A presented by the clubs
together.

There were a total of 6 stations, two stations for each club. All the participants were

given a game card with six pictures representing each station printed on it. The participants
are required to complete missions from all the stations. Once they finish the tasks, they will
obtain a corresponding chop on the game card. After collecting all the chops, the participants
can exchange a gift, such as a corn roll, correction tape, highlighter, notebook, etc.

The Japanese Language Society was in charge of “Kendama" and “Everyday Language
of Japanese”. “Kendama” is a traditional Japanese toy. The toy was made out of a handle (ken),
a pair of cups (sarado), and a ball (tama) connected by a string. Kendama can be held in
different grips. Many tricks and combinations can be performed to get the ball to land back
into the cup. Players must toss the stringed ball into the air and try catching it using the
cup. On the other hand, there was a set of 20 common Japanese phrases in the “Everyday

Language of Japanese” station. Participants had to match 3 out of 5 Chinese translation
meanings with their correct corresponding Japanese sentences to win a chop.
