Modern Foreign Languages
Barton Peveril welcomed pupils from across Hamsphire’s schools, for a German Day. Pupils from Brookfield Community School, Wildern School, Wyvern College, The Gregg School and Noadswood School attended the event.
The day, which was supported by the Goethe-Institute, gave pupils an insight into the world of work within modern foreign languages. Pupils experienced a range of sessions designed to showcase the career possibilities available to them with fluency in German and other modern foreign languages, including a hands-on advertising session that saw the pupils create an advert for their own German product.

Wyvern College’s Curriculum Leader MFL, Ms Ashdown, praised the event:
“We all thoroughly enjoyed the day. There was a lovely mix of activities for the students and they were really engaged throughout. The highlight for them was definitely writing and filming their German advert.”
Wyvern College pupils also said:
“I loved it! Interesting, exciting and fun.”
“The activities were really engaging and the day was great fun. I learnt lots.”
“It was really interesting to see how you could use German in your future life.”
