Last week at Cart Mill, we participated in Languages Week Scotland, a wonderful initiative aimed at celebrating the diverse languages within our centre and around the world. \u00a0Take a look at some of the activities:<\/span><\/p>\n

During our daily group time, we kicked off the day with greetings in different languages \u2013 Bonjour, Hola, Merhaba, and Ciao plus many more. \u00a0The children had a great time trying out these diverse hellos, turning language time into an engaging experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We infused technology into our story time, exploring stories in Spanish and French. ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ took on a language twist, and the children even grasped counting to three in both Spanish and French \u2013 quite impressive!<\/span><\/p>\n

Wednesday brought a delightful surprise \u2013 one of our parents very kindly visited the centre to read a story in Gaelic. The children enjoyed learning animal names in Gaelic, making the session an enriching language journey.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThursday saw a visit from Camembear when we sang songs in French and talked about the French words that we already knew. We then asked how to say some of our favourite things in French. Our favourite one was the French for sweets – bonbon – because they are good good!
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, on Friday afternoon, we held a grand Book Bug gathering! We sang songs in French and Gaelic, and the children selected different languages to welcome Book Bug. Some even remembered to say hello in French or Spanish, showcasing their newfound language skills. We were then treated to some story telling in Polish.

Languages Week wasn’t just about words, it was a week filled with smiles, curiosity, and a lot of language fun. Here’s to our fantastic little language explorers! <\/span>\ud83c\udf1f\ud83c\udf0d\u2728<\/span><\/p>\n
