Languages and International Blog
Welcome to our Languages and International Blog. At Bridgewater, we have chosen Spanish as the language we teach, as it is widely spoken. This is taught to all children in years 3 to 6 by Mrs D'Agostini. We engage the children through playing games, singing songs and stories as well as developing their grasp of grammar and the written language. Please celebrate the children’s learning with us by commenting on the blog posts below. ¡Hasta luego!
We have been accredited with the International School Award (ISA) 2022-2025 in recognition of our international focus. We were praised by the British Council for our commitment to embedding a rich and creative range of international work.
Dia de los Muertos
October
Year 4 and Year 5 children learnt about the Day of the Dead and how it is celebrated in some South American countries.
Numbers Around the World
To coincide with our whole-school focus week on Mathematics, children in all year groups experienced a range of activities around number. Our wonderful Language Ambassadors again supported the classes with lots of knowledge and enthusiasm! The children and adults enjoyed sharing the languages they speak, highlighting patterns and similarities. We look forward to playing number games outside!
