Bulimba shines in Italian Competitions!

During Term 2, some Bulimba State School students showed courage and grit by challenging themselves to improve their Italian writing and speaking. They dedicated their time at school and at home, to hone their written and spoken Italian words and expressions to achieve their best and represent our school in regional and national competitions.

Our Year 6 Italian captain, Maxime B. was awarded with a Special Mention Certificate in the Years 5-6-7 category of the national 2025 Italian Education Awards, for his 300-word Italian essay titled “La migliore vacanza della mia vita” (The Best Vacation of my Life), based on his real-life travel with his family in Italy. Bravo, Maxime!

Some Year 5 and 6 Bulimba students also entered the 2025 LTQ Online Speech Contest by reciting a passage in Italian about themselves and their interests and making a video of their recital. They competed against students from other schools in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Congratulazioni to the following students who received certificates in their category:

Gold awards: Aileen C. (Year 6) and Lola M. (Year 5 background speaker category)

Silver award: Maxime B. (Year 6 background speaker category)

Bronze award: Hunter C. (Year 6)

Bravissimi, studenti!
