La Fete De La Musique

Published by Davenies on Saturday 5th of July 2025

Thursday saw a whole morning committed to celebrating language. We were treated to an assembly, hosted by Year 8, which showcased French, Spanish, Italian, German and Greek and we had songs, ensembles, poems and even some rapping! Our Pre-Prep sang us a song in French 3 played a french piece on their recorders.

Once we were all excited for language, the Year 8 boys planned and delivered a languages lesson to Years 2 and 3. There was great excitement and a wonderful novely factor in having older boys teach and the younger boys engaged enthusiastically! We are absolutely sure the boys finished their day knowing at least one or two more words in a different language!

Lunch was a continental feast with a food symbolic of each of the languages and boys and staff enjoyed hand bell performances and songs from our students and staff in a different language.

What a wonderful day! Thank you to Madam Chamberlain for all her had work in bringing her idea to life.
