Did
you know that there are more than 6,700 languages being spoken in the world
today?
Diversity
of language is what the Saskatchewan Organization for Heritage Languages is all
about. We are a provincial non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the
study and teaching of heritage languages. That means we concentrate on
languages other than Canada's official languages of English and French. SOHL
operates as an umbrella organization for groups, schools and individuals
across the province. Our
site is full of information about our programs, the different language
schools in Saskatchewan and, of course, information for both students and
teachers! Heritage

Auditorium - 1245 College Avenue Come join us in a celebration of language and
culture in recognition of International Mother Language Day (February 21).
The event will feature multicultural performances and a free sampling of

teachers into regular and separate school classrooms in hopes of promoting
cultural awareness and acceptance.
