European Day of Languages |
On the 25th September Barry Comprehensive School celebrated European Day of Languages, with Year 7 pupils taking part in different activities during the day.
Taster lessons were given in a wide range languages; German, Finnish, Chinese, Italian and Spanish and were delivered by the languages Department, Mr Peacock and former colleagues (Mr Pereira, Mrs Hemmings and Mrs Biccaregui).
Our Sixth Form exchange students also taught lessons, making this a truly International event.
Fun was had in the Art Department where pupils enjoyed making masks representing different countries and pupils made lots of noise in Music looking at Carnival of the Animals.
Other pupils had the opportunity of cookng tapas with Mr Pereira and Mrs Lancaster. They were even treated to Mr Pereira’s guitar playing!
Lunch at the canteen was also extra special with a great choice of European classics on the menu.
Finally, a Year 7 quiz was held with prizes. Miss Evans would like to thank everyone who took part for their support.
