Hi Satomi, ESL/Bilingual Parent information meeting. Here are some details about the ESL parent information network. The details went out in the newsletter last week and will go out again this week, with a reply slip. I will also give letters to parents whose children attend ESL. I have seen some parents in the playground and told them about the meeting.
I would be grateful if you could also let people know about the meeting, and also encourage them to come along to share experiences or support.
Where and when: TUESDAY. 20th OCTOBER at 9.30 am in the hall.
There will be a brief information session about the ESL program then I will give tips on how to help children learn English. Also, I would like to give parents an opportunity to share experiences about bringing up bilingual children and ideas on how they can maintain a strong cultural identity yet help their children become intergrated as confident happy young Australians.
I look forward to seeing you and welcome any ideas of Japanese websites or networks that you could share with parents. Kind regards, Alison
