On Tuesday, 4th February, our Year 9 pupils took part in Tranby’s annual Languages Day, immersing themselves in a variety of exciting language-based activities. From tackling a multilingual quiz to embarking on a treasure hunt, the day was packed with challenges that tested their linguistic skills in fun and interactive ways.
A highlight of the day saw pupils putting their code-breaking abilities to the test in a Russian language session, before diving into the beauty of Italian. Beyond the classroom, the entire Senior School embraced the international spirit, enjoying a European-themed lunch and a form-time languages quiz.
Of course, days like this don’t just happen - they require an enormous amount of effort behind the scenes. From our brilliant teachers, who meticulously plan the timetable and transform classrooms into vibrant hubs of learning, to our amazing kitchen staff who redesign the entire school menu to fit the theme, it’s a true team effort. Their dedication makes it all look effortless, but the impact on our pupils is profound.
Languages Day is a fantastic opportunity for Year 9 pupils to explore the many benefits of learning a language, especially as they start considering their GCSE options. A huge thank you to everyone for your enthusiasm and participation - bravissimo!
