Four pupils from 3rd Year – Gustav Andrian, Jacob Fannon, Luke Glazer and Charlie Haynes – travelled to Brockhurst and Marlston House School in Berkshire during the first week of the summer term, to teach lessons to some Year 3, 4 and 5 pupils there.
Year 3 were treated to a French lesson on activities in the town; Year 4 learned numbers and family members in Mandarin; and Year 5 were given the challenge of learning to build simple sentences in Latin – on gladiators and emperors, of course! Both ‘teachers’ and pupils thoroughly enjoyed the experience, with pupils undoubtedly going home with a few impressive phrases to share.
Thank you very much to Brockhurst and Marlston House for receiving us so warmly. Thank you too to Ainesh Jamuar who helped the students in the preparation sessions, as part of his Duke of Edinburgh service award. Finally, a special mention to Ares Lam, who co-prepared the Mandarin lesson with Gustav, but was unable to be there on the day.
