Language Ambassadors
Welcome to our Language Learning Page 2024
This page is led by our Language Ambassadors.
Countess Gytha Primary have 4 Language Ambassadors at present. They are very busy helping to promote and celebrate languages around our school.
This term, our Language Ambassadors have been busy finding out how many languages are spoken in our school. Did you know that there are over 6 languages spoken in our school community?
It is important that we show respect for each other’s languages and cultures by celebrating and learning more about them.
Our ambassadors have compiled a list of languages they would like to challenge classmates and their families to learn and research each month. They have carefully linked each language to a special celebration happening around the world at that time.
In celebration of our enjoyment of our French lessons in KS2, the language ambassadors have chosen French as our language of the month!
