@StanwellSchool We take off our berets and alpine hats to our top-scoring @languagenut KS4 and sixth-form linguists for their superb efforts at practising their French and German skills last half-term. Who will be our Easter winners? @WG_Education @SingingSombrero

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

@StanwellSchool Congratulations to our @languagenut KS3 top scorers of the half-term, who have collected their certificates and prizes for their impressive hundreds of thousands of points! Bravo! The competition has now reset so get scoring! @WG_Education @SingingSombrero

#MFL pupils at Stanwell School have been working hard on @languagenut - we have gone from #750 to #209 in the world with 4880100 points! Bravo! Still 4 more days to go to in this half-term's competition for the top scorers in each year group. @StanwellSchool @SingingSombrero

Y8 pupils have been feeling flush, dealing with hundreds of Euros at the Bank of MFL to practise "Ça fait combien?" And "Was kostet das?" If only it were real! @StanwellSchool @Numeracy2XL @SingingSombrero @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Y8 pupils were inspired by the very entertaining David Binns from the tech company, Sanako, about how vital foreign languages are for their futures. Some excellent questions asked. Merci, Danke, Diolch! @David_Sanako @WG_Education @StanwellSchool @SingingSombrero

2 students from St.Etienne have been working with Y9-13 this week, practising their spoken French. We have really appreciated their help and they have learnt a lot about our education system. Mille fois merci! @StanwellSchool @WG_Education @CSC_langlitcomm @Univ_St_Etienne

Farewell to Gina, who has been helping our pupils in all year groups improve their German language skills and cultural knowledge this term. Her support has been invaluable and Y12 and Y13 will really miss her. Danke! @StanwellSchool @WG_Education @CSC_langlitcomm @LMU_Muenchen

What a wonderful farewell party and celebration of our much loved German exchange with the pupils and their host families. 43 years and still going strong. We're looking forward to our next exchange already! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Our German exchange pupils from Y9+Y10 enjoyed showing their partners Barry Island's coastal paths and all the attractions of a typical British seaside town in the Sonnenschein. Wunderschön! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Our KS3,4 and 5 linguists welcomed visitors to the Languages department at Open Day for craft activities. We made Schultüten (school cones) which German pupils receive on their first day of primary school. Fantastisch! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Visitors to Stanwell's Languages department had lots of creative fun at Open Day. The 3D Tour Eiffel 🗼 and Notre Dame stained glass windows were magnifique! @StanwellSchool @WgEducation @CSC_langlitcomm

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

We bade a very fond farewell to our partners after an incredible exchange in Staufen. Some wonderful friendships have been made and we can't wait to host them in Penarth at the end of September. Danke und Auf Wiedersehen! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

A well deserved dip in Staufen's Freibad after climbing up to the castle ruins. What a perfect way to cool off in the sweltering heat for our German exchange pupils. #Schwimmenistprima @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

A wonderful view of Staufen and the Black Forest from its castle ruins after a steep climb for our German exchange pupils past all the vines of the local wine makers. Es war heiss aber fantastisch! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Glorious sunshine again for our last day on the German exchange. After morning lessons, we took in a tour of picture postcard Staufen before heading up to the castle ruins. #Wunderschön @CSC_langlitcomm @StanwellSchool @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Our German exchange pupils enjoyed a huge variety of rides and shows today at Europapark, soaking up the carnival atmosphere and beautiful setting. @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

A super exciting day for our German exchange pupils and their partners at Europapark, Germany's largest theme park. Sweltering temperatures (35C) did not get in the way of favourites like Silver Star, Blue Fire, Wodan and Fjord Rafting! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Our German exchange pupils loved sampling the culinary delights on offer at Freiburg's Münsterplatz market- Oliven, Erdbeere, Currywurst und Bratwurst. Lecker! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

Our German exchange pupils visited the memorial to the Old Synagogue in Freiburg before exploring the city and its market. We met a retired German teacher who was so impressed by our exchange and Y12's translation skills 🎉👏 @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education

[Stanwell MFL @MFL_2XL]

After a morning in school, our German exchange pupils caught the train to Freiburg to take in the sights and experience the joys of the market at the Münsterplatz. Wunderbar! @StanwellSchool @CSC_langlitcomm @WG_Education
