How aged-care facilities can become language labs for preschoolers

Description

In Australia there are limited opportunities for young children to be immersed in language. There are also few trained second-language carers, educators and teachers working in early childhood.

Monash’s Maria Gindidis, Jane Southcott and Sarika Kewalramani have been working with the Protypo Greek Centre and the Fronditha Aged Care Centre to develop a new program that supports educators, teaches children and connects the generations.
