About NSW Japanese School
NSW Japanese School ｜NSW日本語補習校 was opened in order to provide classes in the Japanese language and culture in an enjoyable, sensitive and responsive environment. Our purpose is to give our students the opportunity to become truly ‘Multicultural’ by expanding their abilities to learn new life skills and to gain an appreciation of other cultures through Japanese language and culture.
At NSW Japanese School, classes are formed on the basis of the students’ Japanese Language Ability. Students between 3years6months old (as at 1st February) and Year 6 learn Japanese in the direct method.
The students are divided into classes according to their age and Japanese proficiency. Lessons are conducted in Japanese and the students are encouraged to speak Japanese while at school.
Classes focus on the four language skills- reading, writing, listening and speaking-while incorporating traditional seasonal events to pass on Japanese culture.

Shidonii no aoi sora
Massuguni nobiyou
Minna de a i u e o
Minna no koe ga kodama suru

Te wo tsunaide ayumou
Genki ni a ka sa ta na
Kibou no koe ga afuredasu
Kira kira kagayake minna no mirai ni
