Classes for students of Russian and Polish are now running after school on Wednesdays and
Fridays. The classes cater for:

• Students preparing for Leaving Certificate exams in these languages
• Students wishing to improve their language skills and learn more about the
culture of these countries.
• In the case of Russian, students who wish to start learning Russian.

We are planning to introduce Romanian classes from September 2020.
