LOTE Week Competition 2017

Win! Win! Win!  

Williamstown High School LOTE teachers are organising an essay writing competition for Junior and Senior students.

The topic for the Senior kids is: 

“The 2016 Census results show that we are becoming an increasingly ‘monolingual’ state and that the issue of second-language education in Australia requires ‘urgent’ attention’. Discuss why second-language learning and intercultural awareness is critical in a globalised world”

Students must refer to the recent article on the Census to respond to this topic:

http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2017/06/27/census-2016-second-language-learning-australia-needs-urgent-attention 

All students from Years 10, 11 and 12 are to respond to the same topic (in ENGLISH), with individual winners in year levels to be awarded. All responses must be under 1000 words in length and submitted to: matthew.grose@willihigh.vic.edu.au before 3pm on 28th July.

There are prizes for the winners, including travel and luggage packs from World Strides, brand new Lenovo tablets as well as a 3 night complimentary stay in a Hotel in Legian Bali.
