The students spent a lesson in June reading outside under the shade of the trees, protecting them from the hot spring sun. To commemorate Mother tongue day, celebrated on 21 February, the pupils brought stories written in their mother tongues and shared them with their classmates. The lesson was relaxing, interesting and everyone learned something new. Reading in our mother tongues is important as it ensures we remember them even when not using them every day.
