Reading to EYFS in Turkish and English

This morning, our children in reception had the pleasure of having a parent read to them in Turkish and their teacher read to them in English. They enjoyed listening to the story in both languages and celebrated the languages we speak in our community. Some children even identified that they speak same language at home.
