We can’t wait to share this special day with you, our school’s first ever Open Day and new term welcome party! Join us in ushering in the New Year with a celebration of Korean, Japanese and Chinese language learning and cultural diversity, alongside an inspiring theme of the traditional Daruma Doll for setting new year resolutions.

The Daruma Doll tradition takes centre stage at the event. The doll usually comes in blank eye, you have to first set your language learning resolutions and other wishes by filling in one eye of your personalized Daruma Doll. As you progress in your language studies, you can complete the other eye, representing accomplishment of your goals. The idea is that as you work towards your goal or wish, the Daruma Doll serves as a constant reminder of your commitment and determination. Its rich history and symbolism make it a meaningful and cherished tradition, not only during the New Year but throughout the year as a reminder of personal growth and achievement.

We will be serving Asian snacks and tea at our reception, you can connect and share your experiences with fellow language enthusiastic and students. You may also try your hand at the traditional Korean Tuho game, team up with your new friends, adding an exciting touch and fun to the party.

If you are coming for the Open Day, you’ll have the chance to explore our diverse range of Korean, Japanese and Chinese language courses cater for different learning levels and style. Our dedicated learning team will be there to answer any questions you might have. Just like the Daruma Doll, our language courses are designed to help you achieve your learning goals and dreams! Together, we can make your dreams come true in 2024. Come join our new year term welcome party!
