Last Wednesday we had an amazing music festival at Alsok Hall and I was very proud to see my homeroom class take out the
first prize for year 9 and also best overall performance for the whole school.
The reason I was so proud of them was that they had really practiced so hard for the last month. Every day before school and after school they were singing the song and they were so dedicated.
In our English class we translated the song into English from Japanese as a translation activity. This was a good experience for the students to see the many different ways that song lyrics can be translated and how that changes the mood of the song. Some of the students even tried singing the song in English. They did very well with this but they found it more difficult than they imagined.
When the result was decided for Jupiter 9, some of the students were crying with joy because they were so happy. Congratulations to all the Jupiter 9 students as well as all the AICJ students who either sang or performed at the Music Day.
