St Ignatius School offers Italian LOTE instruction across all year levels. While the Queensland Government funds LOTE instruction from Year 6 on, the generous support of the Italian Government allows St Ignatius to provide Italian instruction to children from Prep to Year 2 while the school budget provides for Years 3 to 5.  Students in Years 1–5 have Italian instruction each week, while children in Years 6 and 7 have 1.5 hours per week. Our LOTE program offers opportunities for school celebrations such as the Italian Carnavale.
