Seabrook Primary celebrates Italian Week

Seabrook Primary School pupils last week donned the green, white and red to celebrate all things Italian.

Children dressed in the Italian tricolour or as their favourite character during the school’s Italian Week.

Some donned masks and costumes fit for the Venice Carnival, while others chose the stripes and straw boater of a gondolier.

Teacher Rosita Savoia said Seabrook Primary, which is an International Baccalaureate school, had a long history of teaching Italian and took an “immersion” approach to learning.
