On Monday 1 August our Year 11 and 12 Italian students went to North Melbourne to participate in a Model United Nations Assembly with 10 other schools. The students were allocated a country to represent (Ecuador, India, Iraq and Portugal), where they had to debate the topic of ocean conservation in Italian.
This required students to gain an understanding of the topic and research their allocated country's stance on the issue, then represent their questions, concerns and ideas in the Italian language.
Our students did an excellent job, speaking confidently and fluently. It was a great opportunity to practice their Italian in preparation for the oral exam in Year 12.
