Ciao a tutti - given the current COVID-19 situation in Victoria, we have made the decision to cancel this event. Although our WALKshops are held in small groups, it is clear that the best course of action at the moment is to avoid all non-essential social gatherings and we wouldn't want to put anyone at risk. Take care, a presto!
Facciamo una passeggiata in italiano nel giardino botanico!
Join us for a Saturday morning walk in italiano through Melbourne’s beautiful Botanic Gardens! L'autunno (autumn) is a lovely time in our city, filled with transition... What can you see around you? What is the weather like? Can you describe your surroundings and how they make you feel, in Italian?
In this 1.5 hour Italian WALKshop, we will wander through the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne and practise speaking together in Italian about the natural environment, the weather and the feelings they evoke. As we make our way through the gardens, you will be encouraged to use Italian to describe what you can see and your thoughts along the way.
This ‘walking workshop’ is intended to be a fun, active and social language learning experience in a real-life context, where the natural environment of the Botanic Gardens serves as a prompt to talk about and describe different things in Italian that you might not usually cover in your regular learning space. You will be provided with some printed materials on useful vocabulary and phrases for the session to help you get started and the WALKshop hosts will be there to support you along the way.
This small group session is open to learners of all levels of Italian.
The WALKshop will be led by Monica from Su Misura Italy, an experienced Italian tutor and native speaker.
When: Saturday 4th April, 10.30am-12pm
Where: Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne – meet at Gate A on the corner of Alexandra Ave & Anderson Street
What’s included: 1.5 hour experience to practise Italian led by Monica from Su Misura Italy and printed WALKshop materials on useful vocabulary for the session
Tickets: $50 per person (+ booking fee)
