#ThinkLanguages Day on the 1st of December
#ThinkLanguages Day on the 1st December

Over 160 secondary school students will be coming to the University of Galway to take part in language workshops (Italian, Spanish, German and French). They will have the opportunity to taste languages through playful activities, to meet student ambassadors and to explore the benefits of choosing a university pathway with a language. TY students will be able to take part in a language workshop and enjoy the experience of being a student at the University of Galway. At the end of the day they will receive a certificate of attendance, complete a quiz, win prizes and eat some pizza! :-)

The event was organized by Dr. Francesca Nicora, Lecturer in Italian, HEI Outreach Officer and Liaison Officer with Languages Connect on behalf of the School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures at College of Arts, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies of the University of Galway in conjunction with other language lecturers.

The event is fully funded by Languages Connect https://languagesconnect.ie/ - Ireland's strategy for Foreign Languages in Education 2017 - 2026 https://www.gov.ie/en/publication/52f94d-framework-for-consultation-on-a-foreign-languages-in-education-strat/#
