Welcome
to the ELL (English Language Learning) page. We currently have over 42 ELLs (English
Language Learners)
attending classes throughout a week. Students come from all levels
throughout the school, years 1-6 inclusive, and from a variety of different
backgrounds. Students may come for one or two sessions each week to
learn/further their skills in using English in speaking, listening, reading and
writing. Year 1 and 2 students come together and years 3-6 are grouped
according to their individual English language learning needs. Students are
enriched through a variety of approaches but one thing you can be sure of is
that there is lots of talking. We strongly believe in celebrating
cultural differences.
So what is an ELL? The definition of an English Language Learner can be someone who was born overseas and English is their second language. He or she can also be a New Zealand born student but one or both of their parents were born overseas and English is mum and/or dads second language. The Ministry of Education provides extra support for these students and I am delighted to be the provider of this service within our school.
