Language of the Week

Starting with this term, we will have a focus on a language every week.  TheBullock Report (1975) stated that:

“No child should be expected to cast off the language an culture of their home as he crosses the school threshold, nor to live and act as though school and home represent tow totally separate and different cultures which have to be kept firmly apart. The curriculum should reflect many elements of that part of his life, which a child lives outside school.”

We would like our students to maintain their home langauge for the many benefits that bi/multilingualism brings.

This week’s language is TAMIL!
