Level 1 Chinese continues to introduce topics relevant to everyday communication. The course will be delivered through a variety of resources.

The official language of China will be explored and developed through the study of the following new topics: Sports and pastimes in New Zealand and China; Age, date, seasons, weather; Buying clothes and festivals; Daily routines in China and New Zealand; Travel; Food and drink in China. Topics covered in Year 9 and 10 will also be revisited. These skills are covered across all topic areas: Reading; Writing; Listening: Speaking: Cultural knowledge and awareness.
