9Y1 make excuses!

Congratulations to 9Y1 on your fantastic work inviting people out to all sorts of weird and wonderful places including a cheese factory(!) and making all sorts of weird and wonderful excuses as to why they don't want to go out! The best excuse has to be "ich muss meine Taube waschen"!
Listen out for the invitation: möchtest du....? Would you like? and Ich  muss.... I have to
Some students created some great conversations on comic life and some used puppet pals 2 to record their conversations. Have fun listening to their creative German.

Year 9 create monsters!

Here are some of Year 9's creations! Year 9 have been learning the body parts in French and also focusing on adjectives. To show what they learnt they had to write a description of "un monstre" and then they used ipads to create their picture of their "monstre"! Some students chose to draw their "monstre" themselves and these pictures are equally impressive.
Enjoy their creative drawings and their creative French!
More pictures to follow.

Year 9 French exchange - final days!

 

The Year 9 French exchange has sadly come to an end all too quickly.
The French party left Cowbridge this morning at 9am to make their way to Portsmouth for their ferry to Caen overnight.  The French and Welsh students have had a fantastic time enjoying each others' company in the last week and many students were crying this morning as they said goodbye. I am sure the Cowbridge students can't wait for the return visit to Rezé, Nantes in June.
The French students spent several hours in Bath today enjoying the Roman Baths and the Fashion museum before heading towards Portsmouth.

Yesterday the French students spent the day at Cardiff Bay where they visited the Senedd  and learnt about the Welsh Assembly as well as enjoying a thrilling round around the bay on the speed boat! A good day was had by all!

7.3 Riceathon Record!

 Well done 7.3! You managed a Cowbridge Riceathon Record this afternoon!

Last Friday night's disco.

The annual Friday disco for the French exchange was a great success. Here are a few photos!
