An app that helps introduce very young children to foreign languages will soon be available in pre-schools around Australia.


The app is part of a $10 million government trial to encourage Australians to become multilingual.

 

 

The government says the success of this app's pilot program will see the same technology applied to maths and science, to try to address an alarming drop-out rate from the subjects in later years.
