European Day of Languages – 27 September 2019
Everyone had a fantastic day celebrating the European Day of Languages on Friday 27th September. Mrs Giles shared some brilliant videos in her assembly. You can watch them here:
We had posters around school to help us say hello in different languages. We had a special menu. There was a treasure hunt on the playground and we had a go speaking different languages in a taster lesson. Year 5 practiced some Italian. They played a game of splat where they had to splat the Italian word on the board quicker than their parner!
Everyone took part in a homework task and the best will be on display in school.
