In Spanish class, Prep students got crafty and learned about different feelings by making faces on plates! Each student created a unique plate face to express emotions like happiness, sadness, and surprise. It was a fun and colourful way to practise vocabulary! We also learned the days of the week in Spanish.

Meanwhile, grade 3/4 students made suitcases and explored Spanish-speaking countries like Colombia, Venezuela, and Mexico. They learned all about these cultures and had a great time on their imaginative journey.
