I hope that you have all enjoyed your holidays and are all refreshed
for a new year. Last year was an eventful one for the SLC with
our tenth anniversary, and our celebrations have flowed into
this year. The SLC held a Haiku Exhibition from January 14 -
31 with work from primary and high school students from around
Australia, and will be holding a forum entitled " Senpai
to Katarou" March 21 and 22. Look out for a full report
on the forum in the next issue of Dear Sensei.
