THIS This page was compiled with the help education PAGE of Hackney Learning Trust & local schools News in brief Learning Spanish through art A NEW project is helping Hackney’s schoolchildren to learn Spanish through art. Two leading education officials from the Spanish Government visited the borough last month, to witness an ‘Art through Spanish’ programme being trialled in three local schools. Helen Williams, from William Patten Primary, N16, said: “The pupils tell me that they are finding it really helpful to follow a ‘pure’ Spanish lesson with the art through Spanish lessons. It gives them the time to consolidate their learning and to apply it to different areas of learning.” At Parkwood Primary School, N4, David Ferrán Presley and Nair Soria watched a Year 4 lesson taught by Raquel Tola Rego. They were learning to draw a cup of ‘chocolate con churros’ while using Spanish to describe their work. Raquel is leading the project. At the last stop on the Spanish visitors’ tour, they were welcomed by the Headteacher Tim Clark and Jacqueline Smith at Skinners’ Academy, N4. “I really prefer to study Spanish and Art together,” said a pupil. “It never gives you any time to get bored and I think I am learning a lot.” Interfaith Iftar held at Olive Going green School to celebrate community MUSLIM, Jewish and Christian church leaders came Pupils from Grazebrook Primary School look to make a more sustainable future for everyone together at the Olive School, N16, on 17 May, to feast on an interfaith Iftar.
