Hello to our friends at St Bede

Yes we got back to school on Tuesday 8th September. We have re-applied for the International School award and are waiting to see if we have got it again. Well done that St Bede got their International Schools Award. Both of our schools do lots of International activities don't we!

We learn French from Y2 to Y5 at St Michael's and then in Y6 we do a year of Spanish.

We write to some children at a school in Malaga which is in the south of Spain by the Mediterranean sea. Here is a picture of the flag for their region. Their region is called Andalucia. It is the same region where your penfriends from Seville live.

Hello to our friends at St Michael's!

Hi there friends at St Michael's. We came back to school on Monday 7th September. When did you go back to school?

We are really pleased as we have just got our International School Award again. We hope you have too.

This year we are continuing to write to our friends in Seville in the South of Spain. We believe you have pen friends in Malaga and write to them.

We also write to some children in the United States of America. Do you have links with any other schools around the world?

This is the school in Seville. We write to the children here!
Please let us know!!
This is St Bede School

Y3 at St Michael's have enjoyed a French breakfast

The year 3 children at St Michael's primary school enjoyed un petit-dejeuner francais today. They each ate un pain au choclat and du chocolat chaud. The children had to ask for the food and drink very politely so they said: Je voudrais un pain au chocolat et du chocolat chaud s'il vous plait. They had to say Merci = thank you when they had been served. All of the children said 'Miam miam! as they were eating which means yummy yummy!


In France people can drink from a bowl which they call un bol.

Here are some photos of Y3 .
