Pupils enjoy good day in any language
PUPILS at Brigstock Primary School had a virtual whistle-stop tour around the world in their own classrooms yesterday.
Specialist foreign language teachers dropped in to teach them a few words in Japanese and four European languages.
Brigstock Lathams Church of England Primary School had a foreign languages morning to teach basic phrases in French, German, Spanish, Italian and Japanese.
Two specialist teachers joined staff and parents to help introduce languages to its 95 pupils.
Headteacher Tim Leah said: “Modern languages will become a teaching requirement. Every primary school will have to provide foreign languages. We’re doing French already but we thought we’d raise interest in other languages.”
