Yesterday, our ESOL learners held a cultural festival in the Library at our Knightstone Campus, where the learners were given the wonderful opportunity to reclaim their narratives and proudly share their diverse cultures.

There were multiple stations at the event, which included written recipes, experiencing what it's like to be an ESOL learner, and the chance to learn a few words from the learner’s first languages. The learners had created a range of cue cards with phrases translated from their languages into English and were helping attendees of the event to master their pronunciations!

Mini presentations were also taking place during the event, with learners showcasing some of the most symbolic parts of their countries. Two dance performances took place, with our learner Preet very confidently performing a dance by herself, as well as a group of learners dancing in their traditional clothes in a circle for the audience!

Thank you to all of our ESOL learners at the Cultural Festival for being incredibly welcoming and encouraging to everyone attending, and for creating a warm and inclusive atmosphere!

Another thank you to all of the staff who helped to make the Cultural Festival happen – Aleixa Sporidis, Mira Ilieva, Shena Deuchers, Marisha West, and Hande Akdegirmen.
