  • MFL TRIP TO THE THREE COUNTRIES CORNER, GERMANY

    Published 04/07/24

    The MFL department annual KS3 trip to Europe recently took place with great success. Forty-one Year 7,8 and 9 students and 4 teachers stayed in the town of Aachen on the border of Germany with Holland and Belgium. After visiting the Dutch city of Maastricht, we travelled to the Three Counties Corner and experienced walking for more than an hour through the biggest Labyrinth of Europe in search of the fourth lost country.

    We enjoyed the Euro 2024 street celebrations in Düsseldorf, admired the famous Cologne Cathedral, saw the river Rhine from above from the big cologne wheel,  and learnt how chocolate is made with a special tour in the Lindt chocolate museum. Our trip could not have been complete without a visit to a theme park and the Phantasia Land theme park by the city of Brühl was a unique experience for everyone. The MFL department wishes everyone a happy summer and we are looking forward to our next year's trip to Barcelona, Spain!

  • A Trip to the Neolithic Period

    Published 04/06/24

    The Year One children recently enjoyed a trip back in time to the Neolithic Period. They visited the archaeological site of Choiroikitia and saw the replica cylindrical houses, that they had been learning about in their Topic lessons, which early settlers in Cyprus had built. The children climbed the hill of so many steps to see the ruins and enjoyed the view from above. They also learnt about the tools that were made out of stone and how they hunted for their food. There was also time to use up any energy left with some play and a delicious lunch. When they returned to school the children built their own cylindrical houses and campfires in our own forest garden!
