Persian has a rich cultural history evident in a body of literature which includes poetry and epic works. Persian is written with the Arabic script. Continuers level language courses are designed for students who have studied the language for 400 to 500 hours by the time they have completed Stage 2, or who have an equivalent level of knowledge.
When studying these languages, students interact with others to share information, ideas, opinions and experiences. Students create texts in the specific language to express information, feelings, ideas and opinions.
They analyse texts to interpret meaning, and examine relationships between language, culture and identity, and reflect on the ways in which culture influences communication.
Who We Are
The School of Languages is a government school which specialises in languages education. Since its establishment in 1986, this unique South Australian school has supported thousands of students to pursue their interest in languages learning and to experience the joy of embracing another culture.
The school was initially founded as a secondary school for students from all three sectors. In 2000 the school introduced its first classes for students from Reception to Year 7. Since then our primary classes have continued to grow in popularity and demand.
Our Mission
The School of Languages aims to enhance access, choice and continuity in language learning for South Australian learners, through the provision of quality programs in a broad range of languages R-12, that complement and supplement languages programs offered in mainstream schools and ethnic schools.
Our Values
Our Unique Context
Students from Government, Catholic and Independent schools come together after school hours to learn the language of their choice, which is not available in their home school. Lessons are held once a week in a friendly environment of committed professionals and motivated students. This provides for a sustained focus and time for extending students’ learning through a wide range of activities.
Teaching Centres
Our classes are held in schools across Adelaide, with Adelaide High School being the largest centre. Approximately 25 other teaching centres offer a variety of languages at various year levels, in response to local demand.
We give special acknowledgement and appreciation to the many schools across Adelaide that host our programs, thus enabling students and their families to benefit from learning a language.
Choosing To Learn A Language
Studying another language offers many rewards, including:
being able to communicate, interact and negotiate within and across languages and cultures
understanding one’s own and others’ languages, thus improving literacy skills, including in English
understanding selves and others, and the diverse ways of knowing, being and doing
further developing cognitive skills through thinking critically and analytically, solving problems, and making connections in learning
