Modern Foreign Languages

Hola! At Barwic Parade Community Primary School our Modern Foreign Language is now Spanish! We launched Spanish learning in school after Easter 2019, where Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 children learnt about many aspects of the culture of Spain. They also learnt some Spanish greetings, numbers, colours and animals!

On 23rd March 2018 - 26th March 2018, some of our Year 5 children enjoyed their first foreign trip. They visited the Chateau du Broutel, Rue, France for three nights. The children experienced a French market, chocolate factory, sealife centre and the beach. All the children had a wonderful time and learnt lots about another culture.
