Happy Polish Heritage Day to all our Polish families! We have celebrated in school with assemblies where children learned about Poland and learned how to say some Polish words and phrases. Children from different countries helped make a fantastic wall display and at Polish Club children made flags.
HOW DO WE WORK:
The project is based on a 45 minute pupils-parents session; run every fortnight in the school. The pupils’ age range is 3-12, a group up to 10 members. Each session is focused on different areas; music, family, emotions, symbols, traditions, food presented through different activities, games and role-plays. For the first 15 minutes of the session parents are introduced to the theme of the session, its aims and the ways they can practice it at home. Then there is a 30 minutes session with the children. There are 2-3 activities practiced, depending on the theme and pupils’ engagement. The aim of the session is to communicate in the first language. Parents and children communicate between themselves in their own languages, English is required only in crucial communication.
WHO CAN JOIN US:
All pupils with English as an Additional Language and their parents are welcome. As we work together the group should be up to 10 people
