Sally Speaks Spanish..


Laurence and Sarah have been doing an excellent job working on their English stress and intonation.





Laurence speaks French.

Laurence and Sarah speak French very well.

Secondary School Visitors

Hello and welcome back to the blog.

Thanks to all  children (well now almost young adults!) from last year's class who came back to see us on their first half day from secondary school. It was so nice to see you all so happy and doing so well.
