On the European Day of Languages and students from Priory Community School Academy came together to celebrate their favourite countries and cultures with a spot of baking.
The cake competition encouraged students to enter a 'language-inspired' cake and students responded with an array of bright and delicious options!
The overall winner was Grace Ferris 10S9 (5000 points for Sharks )
2. RUNNER UP 1 = Archy Allen 10T11 (3000 points for Tigers )
3. RUNNER UP 2 = Bethany Davies 7B4 (1000 points for Bears )
Maisie, 11, shown in the picture was proud of her efforts producing a cake from scratch.
Throughout Europe, 700 million Europeans are represented in the Council of Europe's 46 member states and all are encouraged to explore and try our languages at any age, alongside their usual studies.
The European Day of Languages has been celebrated every year since 2001 on 26th September - together with the European Commission.
The Head of Modern Foreign Languages at PCSA said 'we were delighted and so impressed with all the entries and it was very difficult to choose!'”
Congratulations to our winners who won points for their school houses.
