Happy Family Plan Workshop

HFP workshop 1
HFP workshop 2
On Saturday, 22 May the Japan Foundation, Sydney held a workshop introducing our new teaching resource DVD, Happy Family Plan.

Despite some unfortunate weather the seminar was a great success. To those who attended and provided your most useful feedback, we would like to extend our thanks.

This is what some of the attendees had to say about the Happy Family Plan Resource Kit:

“Disc 2 of the DVD is extremely useful. It’s engaging and the length of each segment is just right. I believe the students will definitely enjoy this!”

“The worksheets on the website plus the included pre and follow up activities are most useful. It is normally so time consuming to make these”

“An excellent resource! It has given me lots of ideas for use on different classes!”

For those of you that missed out, never fear, there is plenty of information available at this website and of course you can still get your hands on our two-disc special edition DVD of Happy Family Plan. The DVD is available for sale at selected retailers and online. Click here for details on how to buy.
