How Multiethnic Families Teach Kids About Character

In multicultural Australia, many families may wonder if passing their mother tongue(s) onto their children could positively support their development.

This is an informative session for parents/carers who choose to raise or would like to know more about raising their children multilingually.

We will share ideas from research and personal experience on the benefits of multilingualism.
