Saturday school in Bushey
Hindi language classes for children
Children learn to speak Hindi and read and write the Devanagari script at our Saturday school in Bushey. The three classes give beginners and more experienced learners different ways to practise.
First words and first letters
In Draupadi, children hear familiar words in songs and stories, practise a greeting and use short phrases in games and conversation. Alongside spoken Hindi they learn to recognise Devanagari letters and begin to read.
Building confidence in Hindi
Subhadra gives children a chance to use their vocabulary in everyday conversations, find meaning in what they read and write sentences of their own. In Kunti, pupils work with longer passages, translate and use grammar to express more complex ideas.
Listening and speaking continue at every stage. Children who hear Hindi at home can build on the words they know while developing their reading and writing.

Hindi lessons run from 9.00 to 10.00 am on term-time Saturdays at St Margaret’s School in Bushey. After the break, pupils join Hindu Dharma classes until 11.30 am. Families travelling from Watford or North London can check the entrance and parking on our school map before visiting.
