Extract

Carlton Primary School in Port Augusta has an enrolment of approximately 200 students in years R - 7. Over 50% of these students are Aboriginal and a large number of our Aboriginal students have been identified as having English as a second language. This year is the first year an E.S.L. teacher has been appointed to the school. I work in the school for one day a week as E.S.L teacher and the following report is from one of the targeted classes.
