15.01.2022 This school does things a little differently - students are learning in both English and the Indigenous Murrinh-patha language. Should we have more of this in Australian schools? : ABC Education

15.01.2022 It's obvious that knowing more than one language can make certain things easier like traveling or watching movies without subtitles. But are there other advantages to having a bilingual (or multilingual) brain? Mia Nacamulli details the three types of bilingual brains and shows how knowing more than one language keeps your brain healthy, complex and actively engaged.

07.01.2022 Un arbre peut cacher une forêt... Si vous êtes déjà allés à Mundolingua, vous avez sûrement déjà remarqué l'arbre qui s'élève devant le musée. Vous vous êtes ...peut-être demandé ce qu'il faisait là... En effet, quel rapport entre un arbre et les langues ? Chaque langue est unique, mais elles appartiennent toutes à des familles. Les langues que nous connaissons aujourd'hui sont nées d'une langue d'origine commune qui, au fil du temps, s'est scindée en plusieurs groupes. Ces origines communes lient les langues les unes aux autres, tout comme sont liés les branches et les feuilles d'un arbre au tronc.

03.01.2022 Last night we held another one of our popular Workshops How to Raise Bilingual Children’ at Cambridge Library We had parents and Carers from Spain, Zimbabwe, the UK, Sudan, Ecuador, Germany and Switzerland. Everyone left with hands on tools that they can implement right now with their children to ensure they maintain their home (minority) language. Connections were made and we’ll follow up with regular parent catch ups for more support!... To get notified of future workshop dates and other events make sure you like our Page and you’ll get notified when we publish them. Looking forward to our next one already! Did you ever attend one of our workshops? We’d love to hear your experience.
