Term 4: Departure time is approaching quickly:

Hi Team, thank you for your attendance to the JOE Club meetings. All the leaders appreciate the effort you are putting into your cultural item for the sister school. With 35 days from today left to prepare remember to use the language tips you’ve been given with those around you. Practice makes perfect right?
