This area of interaction encourages us to consider how we use language as responsible and caring members of society and how we may participate in the local and wider communities. In language A we strive to:
 * explore concepts of identity, culture and community through a variety of texts
 * view and read reports on social problems. International cooperation and aid
 * create posters to publicize contests, awareness campaigns, etc
 * participate in discussions and debates on moral and social issues relating to the involvement of the individual within the community society
 * producing video reports to make other students aware of prejudice, social inequality, health issues, differing needs and various ways of helping others
 * tutoring younger students or students with difficulties
 * corresponding with e-pals in other countries
 * presenting drama or reading poetry in the wider community
