The activity was only open to grades 3-5 in primary school since we wanted to complete more complex educational activities and as a group felt like younger students would not be able to do that. 
Currently the group is made up of DP2 students as there had been some trouble last semester with the MYP students and their contribution to the group. the languages we currently offer in this group are German, Russian, Sinhalese, Spanish, Dutch, and Japanese. One of the languages the primary students asked for was Italian however there are not many Italian students in our secondary school and those who are there, are already involved in a different service group. 
We hope to be able to strengthen components of these languages and their cultures in these primary students and widen their interest in these other languages hopefully allowing them to memorise certain phrases and or alphabets/numbers
