For the Language of the Month celebration, we take a new language each month to be showcased. This gives us an opportunity to think about all the other languages in our community which are not routinely reflected in our curricula. The students in each language group help us provide a visual, auditory and gustatory experience! Each language is visible in bilingual posters throughout the school; there is music during the breaks; a quiz is created by the students to reflect their language and culture and, finally, there are tasty treats from each culture in the aula during lunchtime.

We encourage students to involve their parents and families to make this an initiative for the community!

Students can also take part in Language of the Month Celebrations as a part of Service as Action. For more details about the link between Service as Action and Languages, please see here.
