Why should your child learn Afrikaans? l Afrikaans is beautiful, powerfully descriptive and easy to learn! l If your child writes the SA Matric, they need 2 South African languages. l Every DSK student has to do at least two years of Afrikaans or Xhosa. (start gr 6 or 8) l If Afrikaans is chosen in grade 6, learners are able to choose other non language subjects (design and tech / EMS) in grade 8. l It broadens communication regionally, nationally and internationally l It has international academic recognition – is taught in Russia, America, New Zealand and Poland.
l We teach Afrikaans at the First Additional Language level. Pupils are taught Language, Literature, Poetry and a love for reading. We do a variety of orals as well as written work. We write one main Language test per term, with short vocab, spelling and dictations in between. By the end of grade 9, pupils can choose Afrikaans for Matric - regardless of whether the students choose Kombi or NSC stream (unlike French / Xhosa.) l From gr 10 - 12 we follow the IEB curriculum, which ensures that pupils are ready for University.
What will they do in Afrikaans lessons? l Read novels!
lWatch movies!
lListen to music!
lPractise speaking and hearing Afrikaans.
Advantages of learning IsiXhosa l IsiXhosa is one of the 11 official languages in South Africa. l It is spoken by over 20 million people across the nation. lLearning isiXhosa forms the basis of understanding other Nguni languages e.g. IsiZulu, IsiSwati, and IsiNdebele.
The Importance of IsiXhosa in S.A l It is in high demand in the job industry in S.A e.g. media, medicine, law, and pharmacy, one needs to understand isiXhosa. lIt’s a popular language internationally as it fascinates tourists and those who can not speak it. lIt also helps in strengthening relationships between diverse cultures, building up a global family.
Misconceptions about IsiXhosa lSome have misconceptions that isiXhosa is a difficult language to learn, because of the clicks. IsiXhosa has three main clicks and they are much easier than you think. lThe structure of the isiXhosa language is different compared to the structures of European languages, and once you have accepted that, you will realise that isiXhosa is an easy language to learn. lLearning Xhosa is truly an African experience (you learn about African culture).
IsiXhosa at the DSK! l Remember those who choose Xhosa don’t have to do Afrikaans. lLearners will be assessed through their written and oral work. lIf you want to open up a whole new culture through language for your children, give them this opportunity to join IsiXhosa.
