Mother Tongues

Mother Tongues is a new project from The Arvon Foundation, funded by the Gulbenkian Foundation, which encourages young people to write in both English and their mother tongue. This short film, taken at Toteigh Barton, one of Arvon's centres, shows 16 Portuguese-speaking young people from Norwood School in Lambeth. For more information and to read examples of the young people's work on the course, in both English and Portuguese see http://arvonfoundation.org/p231.html www.arvonfoundation.org
