Dear God...
“The ocean is like God and raindrops are the religion. When they fall into the ocean they become one.”
Zoya Ahmed and Nurun Uddin

St Lukes Holbeck
ESOL* and Children's Group
*English for Speakers of Other Languages
 
St Luke's Church are working with asylum seeker and refugee families in Holbeck and Beeston which is an inner-city area in South Leeds.

The project teaches English to adults which is embedded in “getting to know and make relationships with the local community” and also sign posts people to other organisations who are able to assist them and go out to events.

The proejct incliudes the provision of fun activities for the children of parents who are learning with us.

We feel that this is important as children so often have better English than their parents and by necessity become their parents’ helpers as the family tries to navigate their way through a system in a new language.
