Dear Parents,
PTA is inviting you and your child to take part in PETNS Intercultural May celebration in a Covid friendly manner.
Our students have a great variety of background and for lots of them English is their second language. The school is always very encouraging and supportive about native languages spoken at home and research shows that the more fluent a child is in their mother tongue the easier they learn another language, including English.
The school would love to receive recordings from you in your home language – you or your child can read a book, sing a song, say a poem for example. Feel free to share photos or the recipe of a national dish or anything else unique to your home country.
Please email your child’s class teacher with your recording. Please see an example of a parent from our school reading a story in Spanish!
Material will be shared with your child’s class via Google Classroom and it could also be shared with other classes in the school.
