We offer:

• German as a Second Language (GSL) to English speaking children.
• English as a Second Language (ESL) to German speaking children.

The GSL and ESL programmes are concentrating on the conversational aspects of the languages through a thematic approach at all levels thus ensuring a broad variety of language used in daily life.

• The PL Team will be present during the Open House evenings with an information stand.
• The PL Team works with vocabulary books for the children from Year 3 upwards. This booklet will remain with your child while at AFNORTH. Parents will be able to see the growth in vocabulary acquisition.
• The PL Team sends the children’s work home twice per year. The work folders include workbooks and the vocabulary books.
• The PL Team works with certificates showing which themes have been covered in the classes . On the back of the certificates one can see some basic language acquisitions related to the theme.
• The PL Team organises, together with the German community, an annual Saint Martin celebration. This cultural event takes place around 11 November. The children prepare for this celebration in class using vocabulary and sentence structures linked in with stories, songs and art activities.
• The PL Team organises, together with the German Elementary Department, an “in-house” exchange programme. The English speaking classes will meet the German speaking classes and participate in all sorts of language activities.

The PL Team is looking for volunteers to help with the St. Martin lanterns, and other activities. If you are interested in helping please contact us (045-5278223)
