Students from Year 8 are undertaking an exciting new language program this year with weekly tutoring sessions from native speakers in Columbia. The Meg Language program will focus on building the speech side of the student's Spanish and incorporates the cultural aspect of Spanish speaking South America. Each Monday both classes will link up via a Zoom meeting with their Bogota tutors to learn Spanish phrases and interact with native speakers. 

Year 82 celebrated Shrove Tuesday or Martes de Carnaval, as the Spanish call it, by ordering panqueques (pancakes) with miel de maple (maple syrup), fresas (strawberries), arandanos (blueberries), and some delicious huevos de Pascua (Easter eggs) from Senora Roche. Food proved to be the perfect incentive to learn and practice the new words whilst learning about how Spain celebrates holy days.
