Extra Curricular

Trips and Visits

The MFL department runs regular exchange visits.  Spanish  students have the opportunity to visit Avila in Year 10. They will spend a week there and will experience what is is like to live with a Spanish family and they will also spend time visiting the sites in and around Madrid, Segovia Toledo and Salamanca. This is an excellent opportunity to not only improve their Spanish skills but also increase self-confidence and independence. 


Our 6th form students visit San Sabastian and the surrounding region. They are able to experience Spanish food, culture and architecture as well as practice their spoken Spanish .


Competitions 

Students have the opportunity to take part in a number of extra-curricular competitions including the UK Linguistics Olympiad, the GCHQ National Language Competition and the Anthea Bell Translation competition.
