⚽🇪🇸 Spanish Enrichment Afternoon 🇪🇸⚽
What a fantastic afternoon celebrating the start of the Football World Cup! Our pupils enjoyed a special Spanish Enrichment Afternoon, supported by the wonderful Language Ambassadors from St Benedict's Catholic High School
The children took part in a range of exciting activities, developing their Spanish language skills while learning about Spanish-speaking countries and football culture. From interactive games and conversations to football-themed challenges, there was plenty of enthusiasm, teamwork and learning throughout the afternoon.
¡Muchas gracias! We look forward to more opportunities to celebrate languages and cultures together.
