These are fantastic!
S1 have been learning about Dia de los Muertos - today we compared it with Halloween and identified what things were the same as Muertos celebrations and what were different. We then made some velas for our ofrendas! Great work boys! @lhslanguages.bsky.social @lhsasc.bsky.social

So lovely to hear lots of love for languages amongst our P7s tonight! Lots of P7s with their sights set on Languages Academy next year 🫶🏼 We also met parents who had lived and worked in 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 🇨🇳 🇷🇺! #languagesopendoors 💪🏼
Great to meet so many P7 families tonight! Mums and dads were using WordWall to test their languages skills and our P7s loved practising Chinese characters on the magic mats! 🇫🇷🇩🇪🇮🇹🇨🇳🇪🇸

This is a niche German teacher thing, I know, but I can’t cope with the mispronunciation, so here’s how you say the new Rangers manager’s name correctly. Now we’ve got that cleared up, can we use the umlaut in Röhl too! Danke! 🇩🇪

Another language is not just a language. It’s a window on other peoples, cultures and beliefs. It cuts through conflicts and controversies. It brings people together and settles arguments. Another language is understanding, solidarity and friendship. Languages are powerful.
