It's European Day of Languages on the 26th of September!

At the initiative of the Council of Europe, Strasbourg, the European Day of Languages has been celebrated every year since 2001 on 26 September.

 Throughout Europe, 800 million Europeans represented in the Council of Europe's 47 member states are encouraged to learn more languages, at any age, in and out of school. Being convinced that linguistic diversity is a tool for achieving greater intercultural understanding and a key element in the rich cultural heritage of our continent, the Council of Europe promotes plurilingualism in the whole of Europe. 

Ideas for EDL:
  • Create an international wall display with cultural facts
  • Hold an international food market
  • Hold an international sport competition
  • Organise Eurovision  song contest between neighbour schools
  • Plan an english breakfast or French lunch
  • Have a class  and a famly language day
  • Organise culture and language quiz
  • Make a presentation of the language you study
Have fun on the European Day of Languages!
