Form 2’s Round the World Week 

Following the report last week on Form 3’s Italian discoveries, we bring you news of Form 2’s Spanish adventures:
“Our Form 2 children have enjoyed learning about Spain, and in particular about Spanish foods and Spanish dancing. Learning to cook Spanish style began in the school cookery room with traditional Spanish tapas dishes including tortilla, salsa, Manchego cheese with quince jam, and Honeydew melon with Serrano ham. The children enjoyed stuffing peppers with goat’s cheese, and creating a more unusual chickpea and black pudding recipe. These dishes were enjoyed by all at break time.
Next, Form 2 visited the Ambiente Tapas Bar in York to compare their Spanish cooking with the ‘real thing’; they were especially impressed to learn about the Spanish delicacy which is a ham where the pigs have fed only on acorns.
Form 2 pupils and staff are grateful to Javier, our Language assistant, and Senorita Arizabel who introduced the children to flamenco dancing. They were quick to embody the mood of Spanish music. Well done Form Two!”
