Immersia 2024: Raising children in more than one language

Are you a parent or member of a bilingual family? Do you often wonder if or how your children will grow up bilingually in Australia? 

In collaboration with 2024 Immersia, the ACT Bilingual Alliance and the ANU Centre for European Studies presents this panel discussion and seminar for families and others interested in bilingualism and bilingual education.

Discussion will be led by a multilingual panel of parents, young adults who have grown up bilingually, and educators and academics involved in bilingual education. Questions and input from audience members are encouraged, and there will be opportunities for networking after the seminar.

Children welcome but must be under parental supervision.
