Erasmus Week

It has been wonderful welcoming children and colleagues from Hungary, Greece, Spain and France to school this week. On Monday, all children (and Erasmus students) participated in workshops about different English lessons. The children also completed work together in the afternoon. On Tuesday, some Margaretting children and some pupils from Erasmus participated in drama activities and the teachers observed lessons in the afternoon. On Wednesday, the Erasmus students and adults enjoyed a trip to Colchester Castle with the Year 3/4 class. On Thursday, they had a great time in London seeing the sites and on Friday we all celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. It was wonderful to show children and staff from other European countries how our education system works and how amazing Margaretting really is. Our children also benefitted from making friends from other countries and learning about them and their culture. Thank you to Mrs Spinks (from LIFE) and Mrs Gozel for organising such a huge event.
