Dear school community, during the holidays, on 21 February, we will be celebrating International Mother Language Day. It was proclaimed by the General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in November 1999 to preserve and protect the languages spoken in the world. The theme for 2024 is Multilingual education – a pillar of learning and intergenerational learning. Therefore, our MYP students will participate in activities during their English lessons after the holidays to commemorate the day. Furthermore, we also encourage the whole school community to celebrate their mother tongues. Read, write, listen and speak in your language to preserve your cultural heritage.
