La Dante is proud to support BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, who are organising an auction to raise money for the county’s hospice Thorpe Hall. The hospice has been BBC Radio Cambridgeshire’s chosen charity partner this year, as they are raising funds for a new building to help people in their final weeks and days be cared for in the best way possible.
On December 7th this year, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire are having an On-Air Auction – the station will auction off donated items or experiences to our listeners and encourage them to bid as much as possible to raise funds! La Dante is proud to donate a Summer Cappuccino intensive course in Italian worth £180 to the highest bidder.

La Dante supports the learning of Italian for bilingual children living in Cambridge. We would like to give our children a new opportunity starting a new Pinocchio: Cambridge Italian Bilingual Group
which will consolidate their Italian and their understanding of our culture through a programme based on Italian literature, history, geography and Italian traditions. The methodology is novel and fun to attract the children’s attention and parents will be actively involved in their educational development. We’ll meet each Saturday for 12 weeks for a session of 3 hours and the children will have reading time and creative projects that will illustrate at the end of term. Italian through drama will be part of the projects to promote creativity and expressivity in their own language.
Bilingualism is a great gift we give our children and at La Dante there are expert Italian teachers who teach Italian grammar as well as our culture with flair and enthusiasm. Children will be inspired to get involved in workshops and will be able to achieve PLIDA qualifications with recognised diplomas up to bilingual C2 level.
La Dante is a qualified and recognised Examination Centre for PLIDA linked with La Società‘ Dante Alighieri in Roma.
Pinocchio: Cambridge Italian Bilingual Group at La Dante for bilinguals starts in the Spring 2013.
Scholarships are also available from La Dante Alighieri Society in Rome for students who wish to reach A level standard.

Coccinella – Italian mothers and toddlers group at La Dante
La Dante is launching a new playgroup on January 15th 2013 for mothers, fathers and grandparents who wish to raise their toddlers bilingually. We invite the Italian community to come along on Tuesdays at 2pm to join a small group of children and parents singing along and playing together in Italian. La Dante continues to serve the Italian community giving them an opportunity and a place to meet at The Lodge, in our new beautiful premises. The learning environment is ideal as the children are exposed to natural Italian, borrow books and dvds, speak Italian with other children and get used to our language and culture the natural way. In the summer we have our bilingual families picnic in the green area with Italian food and cakes at weekends.
Activities with the toddlers vary from readings from Rodari to creative activities, miming, storytelling, listening to stories and encouraging singing nursery songs.
We encourage toddlers to make up puppets and play in a safe and lovely surrounding. This is also a wonderful opportunity for the community based in Cambridge to get to know each other.

La Società Dante Alighieri è entrata a far parte dell’EUNIC (European Union National Institutes for Culture), associazione che riunisce circa 30 Istituzioni europee. L’EUNIC ha come scopo principale quello di promuovere la diversità culturale e la comunicazione tra le società europee, oltre che cooperare con i Paesi al di fuori dell’Unione Europea. L’EUNIC si pone, inoltre, come interlocutore privilegiato per la Commissione Europea nella definizione della politica culturale dell’Unione.
L’entrata della “Dante” in EUNIC consente a tutti i Comitati Dante Alighieri di entrare a far parte o di costituire “Cluster” locali, ossia gruppi che riuniscono le rappresentanze locali di istituzioni culturali europee analoghe alla Società Dante Alighieri (British Council, Goethe Institut, Institut Français, Instituto Camões, ecc.). Grazie a questi contatti, i Comitati potranno organizzare iniziative congiunte dedicate alle lingue e alle culture europee e partecipare a progetti comuni. Per maggiori informazioni sulla natura dell’Associazione e per conoscere la lista dei Cluster già esistenti.
Sono lieto di annunciarle, inoltre, che la Società Dante Alighieri organizzerà prossimamente a Roma un Convegno dedicato alla promozione linguistica e culturale in Europa.
