These opportunities that we give students only helps them make better choices and know other cultures as they grow and learn through the grade levels.
The world is increasingly interconnected and our economy is increasingly reliant on knowledge of other cultures and their languages. This is an incredible program equipping students from an early age to have the skills needed to thrive.
We inspire more than 40,000 students every week
with our Mandarin and Spanish Language Programs
Inspiration for your School
Spanish
We open students minds to learning Spanish so their skills can open doors in the real world.
Spanish is a beautiful language with a wide global influence on business and culture. It is the official language of 21 countries globally and the unofficial language across many parts of English speaking countries.
Without language, one cannot talk to people and understand them; one cannot share their hopes and aspirations, appreciate their history or savour their songs.

Student Progress in Meg Mandarin Language Program
Monitoring student assessment data helps Meg improve our program. It gives us an indicator of whether students are making adequate improvement each year, allowing us to provide support where it is needed most.
A network wide approach to languages
The idea of introducing World Language Programs across an entire school district is at best, intimidating and at worst, impossible. The ability to attract sufficient language teachers and provide a consistent vision across the network is considered to be a bridge too far.
The Importance of Classroom Teachers to the Meg Language and Culture Program
The role of the classroom teacher is pivotal in the successful implementation of the Meg Language and Culture program. Classroom teachers not only bring their expertise to the table but also their understanding of the students in class as well as their own enthusiasm for learning.
