Unity Wall

Unity Wall

We invited public figures to submit a message to welcome children and young people back to school in August 2020. These messages are in a language other than English, and we are delighted to feature such a wide range of languages. Thank you to everyone who took the time to respond to our invitation.

All of the videos below are also available on our YouTube channel. Here, you can turn off the English translation and really test your language skills!

We hope these short films will inspire pupils or classes to create their own messages, in a range of additional and community languages. If you would like your video to be included on our wall, please contact SCILT
