Today we welcome those year 6 students who will be with us in year 7 in September for an induction day. Our current year 7's have written some post cards for them to welcome them into the school and their future MFL studies. Here are some examples...
The Spanish Tourist Office and the Consejería de Educación have launched a competition on the Camino de Santiago. The competition is open to primary and secondary school teaching staff in UK schools providing Spanish as a foreign language. Entries should consist of ideas to develop school projects and activities aimed at disseminating the history, geography and cultural legacy of the “Camino de Santiago”. Entries must be submitted by the 28th of September by e-mail to info.uk@educacion.es.
Prizes: Schools submitting a proposal will receive a set of reading material. The teacher presenting the winning project will be awarded a trip to Galicia for two people, including flights and accommodation for either - A 7 day walking trip on the “Camino de Santiago inglés” (110 kms approx) - or a 4 night stay to visit the cities of La Coruña and Santiago de Compostela. The winner will be announced on the 31st of October 2010.
Comments: Please feel free to leave comments on our blog. Please note that all comments are moderated prior to publication.
Blog safe: We suggest that students use made up names only and do not disclose any personal or contact details.
Photos: In accordance with parental permission forms we will only use photos or videos of pupils without accompanying names and vice versa. If there is anything on this site which you wish to be removed, please do not hesitate to contact Miss Hardman. Pupils are encouraged to create their own avatars as an alternative when wanting to personalise an entry.
Please note that we have just changed the GCSE exam board from OCR to Edexcel. Edexcel have just replaced their old GCSE qualification with a new suite of GCSE's from September 2009. For this reason there are no past papers for this current style of GCSE exam paper. However, please see each language section below for links to Edexcel's old style past papers (pre 2009) and for our previous exam board OCR, both of which will provide good practice in the target language regardless of question format. Pupils will be given further guidance as to the new format of GCSE questions during lesson time.
