Dear Friend,
Letter Writing
There are two simple ways by which students from Geelong can communicate with the students of Viqueque. These letters can easily be taken in luggage and distributed to the schools.
Secondary Year 9
Clonard
The students (70) used “Clonard” postcards. Some of the girls had a small photo of themselves attached to the postcard. These cards were given to Year 9 English class students who were able to read them. They were able to learn some new words. The cards were given to each of the students. Other post cards e.g Geelong scenes could be used.
Bondia, my name is Hayley C. I am from Geelong and go to Clonard College. I enjoy going to school and learning. I also enjoy playing sport and listening to music. I live with my mum, dad and 3 sisters. I also have 2 small dogs named patch and Effie. I also have a bird named Buddy. I hope you are having a good day and hope to hear from you soon. Hayley xo
Bondia, my name is Stephanie. I live with my two brothers and parents. I like to play netball, basketball and go swimming. I have a cat called Gypsy. My favorite subject is ceramics. I am making a pot. I love to play the piano and sing. I want to be a vet when I am older. I like to eat chocolate. Have a great day! Seph xo xo
Primary Year 6
St Ignatius
The Viqueque students in primary schools cannot speak/read English. The St Ignatius students (20) typed their personal details in Tetum on a word document. In some cases the English version followed each sentence. They added some simple photos, eg. Pet, themselves, brother, friend etc. The letters A4 were laminated. A couple were read to the class and then attached to the walls of the classroom so the students could read them. There are very few posters and pictures in the classroom, thus the letters add some colour.
