The Language Club
TLC ( The Language Club) takes place on Thursdays at lunchtime. Sixth Form pupils organise events with an international theme while raising some money for a charity of their choice. In June 2011 we were able to give £75 to the NSPCC. Pupils come up with the ideas and plan how the event will be organised. They learn to work as a team and how to solve problems together.
Last year’s events included:
- An international treasure hunt to celebrate the European Day of Languages
- A celebration of St Nicholas’ Day with a sale of candy canes in stocking with scrolls and a Christmas Greeting in different languages.
- A Chinese New Year celebration with red money envelopes and chocolate coins.
Since September 2011 we have engaged in the following activities:
- We made badges with phrases in different languages
- We helped with the EDL quiz
- At Christmas we made origami Santa scrolls with Christmas Greetings in different languages
- For Mothers’ Day we sold candles with messages in different languages
