Primary & Secondary Programs
Nearly 400 students are studying
Ukrainian at 11 community schools throughout Australia. Most operate
on Saturdays and a few on Friday evenings. Ukrainian community schools
offer classes at preschool, primary and secondary levels, with some
also offering Ukrainian as a mainstream elective for Years 11 and 12.
Students can study the Ukrainian language as well as Ukrainian culture,
literature, history, geography and singing. Some schools offer additional
opportunities for those interested in studying Ukrainian dance and music,
eg. playing the bandura, a unique Ukrainian instrument with some 60
strings.
