From calligraphy to crepe-making, dance tutorials to interactive displays, on March 13 and 14, the St Augustine campus came alive with an estimated 2,000 visitors for The Centre for Language Learning’s (CLL’s) Open House 2026.
The CLL Open House is a triennial event that lets participants “experience a world of languages through hands-on fun”, the centre states.
“We had a wide range of activities that covered the following languages taught at the CLL: Chinese, ESL, French, German, Japanese, Spanish and Yoruba. Although we do not teach Korean, we also had two Korean workshops,” said Ms Janine Lutchman-Nkouetang, Administrative Assistant (Outreach) at CLL.
Activities included horseback riding; wine and cheese tasting; cooking demonstrations; German, Japanese and Korean calligraphy workshops; interactive displays; karaoke; craft-making; language games; photobooths; musical performances; dance tutorials; and information sessions on opportunities to study abroad.
