Discover Weekly Czech Language Sessions

The Czech Slovak Club Inc hosts engaging weekly meetings designed to promote understanding and friendship between Czechs, Slovaks, and the wider New Zealand community. These gatherings focus on the day-to-day use of the Czech language, offering a welcoming space for language practice and cultural exchange. Open to all ages and not limited to members, this activity is perfect for anyone interested in Czech culture or language immersion. No entry fee is required, making it accessible for newcomers and regulars alike. Each session lasts 150 minutes, providing ample time for interactive learning and socialising.

Ideal for beginners and fluent speakers, the meetings encourage participants to converse in Czech, share stories, and build connections. As part of the club's cultural-language initiatives under the czech-association umbrella, these sessions foster a sense of belonging in Wellington's diverse community. Attendees benefit from improved language skills, cultural insights, and lasting friendships that bridge Czech heritage with local Kiwi life. Simply turn up—no prior booking needed—to join this vibrant group activity.

One key highlight is the opportunity to integrate language practice with community bonding, helping participants feel more connected to their roots or discover new ones. The club's resources, such as an online library catalogue and Czech language newspapers, complement these meetings by offering additional learning materials. This holistic approach ensures every session is both educational and enjoyable, promoting ongoing engagement with Czech traditions in New Zealand.
