It's Your Right: Kristian on the Right to a Language

Kristian, who was born in Bratislava, loves speaking his native Slovak as it reminds him of where he is from. He enjoys being able to speak both languages and uses both English and Slovakian everyday - he even tries to help his parents learn to speak English. He goes to school in Ballymakenny College in Drogheda, where he plays football as a defender, just like his Dad.
