We celebrated our first My Language Day on 27 February 2024.
We have timed My Language Day to coincide (as near as possible!) with the UN International Mother Language Day - which is a worldwide celebration of multilingualism.
My Language Day is our second event of the school year to celebrate our diverse multilingual community - in September we celebrate OWL Day (Our World Languages) - which is a whole school celebration.
Whilst OWL Day is outward facing - with the whole school community invited to experience and celebrate our diverse languages and cultures - My Language Day is more inward facing - an opportunity for the school community to reflect on their own language and culture.
We asked staff and students to produce videos to share an element of their language or culture with the rest of the school community - and here is our archive from My Language Day 2024:
