Making Friends – Bringing Friends Club

 

The Migrant Learners’ Unit, in collaboration with the Foundation for Educational Services (FES), organised the Making Friends – Bringing Friends after school club. The aim of the club is for participants to have an opportunity to speak and interact while participating in informal, enjoyable creative sessions. A snack is served at the beginning of each session. The snack, which varies each time, represents a typical item of food from different nations/ethnic groups and helps participants to become aware of the variety of traditions related to food. Learners who are attending school from Year 3 to Year 6 could apply. Participation is free of charge, but the number of participants for this club will be limited.  

This activity is part of the project ‘Language Learning and Parental Support for Integration PLUS’ (LLAPSI+ – MT/2016/AMIF/4.01), co-financed by the European Union through the Asylum Migration and Integration Fund (2014-2020).
