Italian

Foundation students have been busy playing “Strega comanda colore”, a traditional Italian game used to learn colours. They also had the opportunity to practise colours during “Sardinia Day”, when they discovered some cultural aspects of Sardinia, the second largest Italian island. Finally, just in time for Mother’s Day week, they have started learning about the Italian word “mamma” and family members.
