The learning of Greek brings myriad benefits for the rest of a student’s academic performance, At St John’s College, a Greek school in Melbourne, we ensure that all our students have the opportunity to learn Greek and immerse themselves in the culture of Greece through international field trips and strategic partnerships with external organisations. Read on to learn more about the ways that Greek can enhance your child’s school experience and set them up for a prosperous future.

Understanding Our World

Understanding Greece, its language, its ancient history and its culture is an engaging way to gain an insight into the modern world as we see it today. That’s because Greece is the site of so much that is foundational to Western culture, and also to the continent of Europe that has influenced and determined so much of the world we live in. We firmly believe that through language learning, students at our Greek school in Melbourne can gain a more holistic and balanced understanding of their experience of the modern world.

Language Skills

When students learn at our Greek language school, they not only gain a second language but also improve their English language skills. Learning another language increases understanding of how language works, including its mechanics and idiosyncrasies. Because of this, our students develop greater confidence in their written and spoken communication in English, in turn helping to improve their academic achievement.

Global Opportunities

Attending our Greek language school also brings with it the benefit of our many international partnerships with external organisations from around the world who have some relation to Greek culture, language or enterprise. With access to inspirational and interesting people via these partnerships and opportunities to visit Greece in person, our students gain invaluable experience and build confidence to thrive in an increasingly globalised world.
