Celebrate Speaking!

For the second year running, a Presdales student has been celebrated at the British Council ‘Celebrate Speaking!’ event.

‘Celebrate speaking!’ is a festival of languages in education and community through speaking and performance. Students were encouraged to prepare and recite a poem in the language they are studying. The committee were impressed with the Russian submission by Nicol Coman in Year 9 entitled ‘Autumn in rowan beads’ and invited her to perform it at the live event on Thursday 4th May. Mrs Willett and Nicol enjoyed a variety of performances in over 15 languages and lots of the students talked about words they enjoy saying in their foreign languages. Nicol presented her work proudly and professionally.

Well done Nicol!

‘Poisson d’avril’

On the last day of the Spring term, 8SL learnt about ‘Poisson d’avril’ in their French lesson. This is the French equivalent of April Fool’s Day. In France the ‘trick’ is to stick a paper fish on someone’s back without them knowing. Over the years, the ‘fish’ theme has extended to being able to buy fish shaped breads or chocolates for example around this time. As the 1st of April was the start of the Easter holidays, the homework was to trick a member of the family and upload a photo. There seemed to be a larger number of tricked Dads on the whole who were walking around all day with a paper fish stuck to their back! Special mention must go to Lyra, for making fish shaped biscuits and Maisie, for making a chocolate cake with a fish motif. Bravo!

Well done to everyone and remember to keep the tradition going next year!

Mme Davies

On Thursday 12th January, one of our Year 10 Russianists treated the class to a seasonal dish enjoyed in both Russia and Ukraine at New Year. It got mixed reviews from the students but was much appreciated by Mrs Willett. To find out more about салат “Оливье” click here.

International Presdales

December 9, 2022/in Other lang information /by Presdales School

At Presdales we want to celebrate all the cultures and nationalities within our school community. With this in mind at the start of December we held an International Breakfast. 16 students from across different year groups met for Breakfast and found out some interests they have in common, as well as what languages they all speak. We hope that this will grow into something that will make all our students more aware of the international side of Presdales. We invite interested students to join the International Presdales google classroom where they can put ideas down for future International themed events: https://classroom.google.com/c/NTc0OTk4OTcyOTQx?cjc=gkatopn

Last week Year 11 Russian took part in the International Spelling Bee with our partner school in Yakutsk (https://arctic-school.com/en/home/). Mrs Willett was proud of all of Year 11 for being willing to try something new. Congratulations in particular to Venus Sahan and Daisy Reid for making it to the second round and very well done to Esme Sabin as the overall winner. Our students were surprised to find out that whilst we were in lesson 1, the students in Siberia had finished school and also that it was -40 there! We heard a performance of the traditional local instrument called a khomus and found out a bit about each other’s hobbies.

‘Us two’ by A.A Milne

The Year 7 Russian class and our partner secondary school in Russia have created a collaborative work with students from both schools reciting the poem ‘Us two’ by A.A Milne in English and Russian. Friendship is very important in times like this, so the teachers thought this was the perfect poem. The languages department are so proud of the year 7s who have learnt to read so confidently from the Cyrillic script this year.

Us two by A.A Milne


Year 7

In their last lesson of the year 7MRU enjoyed ordering themselves pancakes with a variety of fillings in their make-believe cafe in room 18. They also filmed some excellent Oscar worthy dialogues in a cafe whilst they were waiting to be served.
