Benvenuto al programma Italiano!

Brunswick South offers Italian for one hour a week to all students from Prep - Grade 6. The program aims to develop students' specific Italian language skills through listening to, reading, writing and speaking Italian, and to broaden their awareness of Italian culture. The program also assists students to develop a general positive attitude towards learning other languages.

The program is planned in conjunction with classroom teachers and is organised, where possible, around the themes or units of work taught in the classroom program. Whole school Italian events, such as the celebration of Carnevale, are also part of the program. Children also participate in excursions, incursions and performances.

Classes are conducted in Italian, with children "immersed" in the language from their first class. The classes are activity based, using stories, songs, games, multi-media, video, audio tapes and grammar exercises to develop oral and written language skills.

È molto divertente!
