Chase Lane becomes a Silver Linguamarque accredited school.

 

Our big language news this year is that further to our successful Bronze accreditation by Linguamarque  last year (2017-18) Chase Lane proudly became a Silver Linguamarque accredited school in April 2019. We are delighted with the award which is a tribute to all the hard work the children do in their Language lessons.

The school's language project for the next academic year is to gain our Gold Linguamarque, placing us in the company of some of the best Language teaching Primary Schools in the country. You can read about Linguamarque and why we are proud of our accreditation at:     https://www.schoolschoice.org/system/files/lis-Linguamarque.pdf

Bonne Anniversaire Elmer!

 

Elmer the Elepahant is 30 years old this year. Inspiration for this year's whole school Book Journey. Following the theme, we dedicated language lessons across the school to the theme of Elmer.   Here is some of the inspiring work the children did in French.

European Day of Languages

 

This year's European Day of Languages was on the 26th September.  In assembly, we brought together music and languages and learned a Swedish song about frogs called 'Små grodorna' to celebrate this day. Watch the Youtube video below to sing along.

Je suis une pizza, Charlotte Diamond

Year 3 read french pizza menus and pretended to order pizza in French. They then designed a pizza in French and made it and ate it. They also learned a French song about pizzas to help learn the words and phrases. Please visit: http://www.charlottediamond.com/ This song is from the CD "Qu'il y ait toujours le soleil" and is used with permission.
