Languages

In NSW primary schools, the study of a language is optional.

At  our school, we offer four Community Language Classes from Kindergarten to Year 6 in the following languages: 

  • Assyrian
  • Mandarin
  • Vietnamese
  • Italian

Language study allows students to develop communication skills, learn about languages as systems and explore the relationship between language and culture. Students engage with the linguistic and cultural diversity of societies and reflect on their understanding of social interactions.
