There are 24 official languages in Europe but adding in regional and minority languages, the total number spoken across the continent is over 200. On 26 September, European Day of Languages, we celebrated the range and diversity of languages spoken throughout Europe by celebrating the languages spoken in our school.
We are so lucky at English Martyrs' to have a school community where many languages and cultures can be celebrated.
Miss Madsen led us in an assembly where we heard many different languages spoken from around Europe. We were set challenges to identify languages and we are going to research the origins of languages spoken in our school.
Throughout the day and coming weeks we will learn more about languages and the importance of learning other languages.
It was is wonderful to see children so proudly sharing their languages and cultural backgrounds with the school community.
