The Lawrence School - Lovedale
The objectives of language entail not merely a means to communicate but also to share ideas, thoughts and emotions clearly and cogently.
The department of Languages at the Lawrence School, Lovedale aims to arm students with effective communication skills in various languages. Most Indian students are inherently bilingual, or in many cases, multilingual. Their ability to switch effortlessly between different languages with different rules of grammar and sentence formation makes our job of creating global citizens all the more easy. We aim to hone their skills in their own mother tongue, the official languages of the country as well as a foreign languages, should they be interested.
