As mother of two bilingual children, I struggle to keep the connection with the heritage language. Writing about children migrant education and @NativeScientis1 felt so personal and relevant to my own life. Thanks to @RTB_Cheerful for the chance.

one thing everyone can do to play a part: “The best way of doing cleanups is by hand. Don’t walk past the next piece of plastic: pick it up.”
Brilliant piece from my friend @EmmaSAanne!!! Litter-picking is my favourite beach activity with the kids...
