Our Year 10 students have had a fantastic week in Spain, fully immersing themselves in the language and culture. From the moment they arrived, they embraced every opportunity to practise their Spanish, explore new places, and experience life as locals.

Students sampled a wide range of delicious Spanish cuisine and enjoyed evenings spent socialising together. They also took part in interactive lessons each morning, which really boosted their confidence and fluency.

Cultural highlights included lively Latin dance sessions and hands-on Spanish cookery classes, where students learnt how to follow a recipe in Spanish. There was also plenty of fun and relaxation at the beach, with students enjoying games, swimming in the sea, ice creams, and sunshine .

On their final day, students spent the afternoon in Cartagena, exploring the submarine and Roman museum, chatting with locals, and soaking up the atmosphere before heading home. On the journey back to Alicante, they were treated to a stunning view of flamingos in the salt marshes of Las Salinas – a magical end to an unforgettable week of laughter, learning, and lasting memories.

A huge thank you to the staff who accompanied the group and made this experience possible. ¡Hasta pronto, España!
