Grammar

singular or plural

Hi!

I'm not sure whether the highlighted pronoun is OK or if it should be replaced by its.

their refers to Croatian language classes.

Since the main purpose of Croatian Language classes is to create an intelligent literary audience, their basic task is fulfilled through required reading.

Thank you
