European Day of Languages
The European Day of Languages (EDL) is celebrated across Europe on the 26th of September every year. It aims to promote all the languages learned and spoken across Europe and its rich linguistic. It was set up by the Council of Europe and was first celebrated in 2001. Why not celebrate with your class, and use this opportunity to raise the profile of language learning and multiculturalism in your school.
SCILT has put together ideas to support you in celebrating the European Day of Languages.
Each year the European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML) produces a variety of materials which schools can use to celebrate the day.
Tell us how you celebrated the European Day of Languages and we will feature you in our European Day of Languages blog. If you include some colourful photos your article could even appear in our next newsletter!
