This term, a group of keen linguists from Years 5 and 6 have been improving their Spanish memory and pronunciation skills in our Primary Bee ECHO Club in preparation for the national final, which will take place at the University of Cambridge on Tuesday, 27th June. The children have participated in fun, whole-class vocabulary games to help consolidate the key words and worked independently on iPads, using the learning platform Vocab Express. They have especially enjoyed competing with one another and monitoring their progress on the online leaderboards. During the week after half-term, they all took part in an in-school competition to help determine the four finalists. Each child had to translate as many words as they could from English into Spanish in one minute. We are delighted that Matteus and Daniel from Year 5 and Giles and Shemaya from Year 6 have been selected as our four finalists. They thoroughly deserve their places in the final after all of their hard work, and we know that they will be fantastic ambassadors for St. Christopher’s the Hall. iBuena suerte!
