Afrikaanse Kiwi-kinders kan Afrikaans aanlyn leer by VLN
The VLN Primary offers opportunities for children to not only learn a new language but also to maintain and strengthen their own heritage language. It is great to make connections with different communities to see how we can provide language learning opportunities for their children. Thanks to Philip from Brokkies-NZ who profiled the VLN Primary to the NZ Afrikaans community.
If you have families with Afrikaans heritage at your school, please share the attached flyer about our Afrikaans programme. We would love to have their children participate.
Afrikaans Online word aangebied deur Anna Fourie, die hoof van Ohura Valley Primary School in die Waikato-streek (in die rigting van Taumarunui). Dit is een van haar bydraes tot die VLN Primary School se werksaamhede. Die klasse bied aan kinders ‘n leergeleentheid, en aan Annatjie die geleentheid om kinders iets te leer waaroor sy baie passievol is.
Klasse word gemik op beginner taalleerders, maar is ook uitgebrei na taal- en begripswerk. Alle klasse kan aangepas word om die verskillende behoeftes van die kinders te pas. Hierdie klasse is bedoel vir kinders wat in Nieu-Seeland woon en wat ‘n belangstelling in Afrikaans het tot die mate dat hulle met gesinslede, familie en vriende wil gesels.
Die skool bied nie net
ondersteuning aan vir Suid-Afrikaanse kinders in Nieu-Seeland wat Afrikaans wil
leer praat nie, maar ook vir ander kultuurgroepe se tale.
Afrikaans Online is being provided by Annatjie Fourie, Principal of Ohura Valley Primary School in Waikato (near Taumaranui), as her contribution to the VLN Primary School. Not only does this provide students with new learning opportunities, but it enables Annatjie to teach in an area she is passionate about.
Classes are aimed at the beginner language learner, but they’ve also been expanded to extension classes with some language and comprehension work. All classes can then be tailored to suit the varying needs of the children. This class is suitable for NZ students with an interest in Afrikaans, and who want to be able to speak with their friends and neighbours.
They also provide language learning support for South African children in New Zealand.
