Are You Celebrating European Day of Languages?

Throughout Europe, people are encouraged to discover more languages at any age, as part of or alongside their studies. The Council of Europe’s belief is that language diversity is a tool for achieving greater intercultural understanding and there are over 200 European languages, so the day is important to be recognised.

If you’re celebrating this event in your school, be sure to take a look at our KS2 (or your region’s equivalent) French and Spanish Activities.
