Italian is
taught throughout the school by the school's two Italian teachers. They
teach the Italian language and culture through rhymes, songs and language
games. The program is organised so that each year level has a particular
theme each term.
Themes taught are chosen for relevance, usefulness and appropriateness to
age level. Lessons focus on activities that encourage both oral and written
language use. In order to encourage maximum participation and enjoyment
amongst students, learning in the classroom occurs through a combination of
language games as well as more traditional methods.
