English Cafe
For students who want to practise their English in a more
relaxing atmosphere, we provide a daily ‘English Cafe’ at
lunchtime, hosted by a range of English teachers. This is
a calm environment, open to all students, where they can
socialise with classmates, play some games, and chat to
English teachers.
English Activity Day and
English Speaking Day
As well as lunchtime and morning activities, we also hold
special English events throughout the year at our school. We
also think that responsibility is an important skill for students
to foster. Several times throughout the year Form 3-5 will host
‘English Activity Days’. Inserting an aspect of competition into
their English learning, these forms have to design and host
their own game stall, all in English, to the rest of the school.
The best stalls, games and hosts are then rewarded with
prizes, which promote an incredibly exciting atmosphere!
As well as this, we like to show students how important English
can be in all subjects not just in English lessons. Throughout
the year, the whole teaching staff comes together to create our
‘English Speaking Days’. This is a day dedicated to bringing
English to our students across the curriculum. Using carefully
selected phrases and discussion points, teachers from across
the school converse and engage with our students in English
throughout the day. We believe that this can inspire students to
realise the potential and value of spoken English, which they
can then bring back to their English classes when the English
Speaking Day is over.
