S1 French pupils have been learning all about Halloween in France.   Although not celebrated to the same extent as in Britain, the French have begun in recent years to organise activities to mark this special day.   Yann Koebel, the French Assistant, prepared power point presentations to introduce the various Halloween vocabulary used in French, and pupils took part in French online games and quizzes on the theme of Halloween.   Posters were made for the Modern Languages corridor and the classroom walls.  Activities were extended into the Modern Languages for Life and Work class in Upper School and they researched how German people celebrate Halloween and its similarities to the German festival of ‘Walpurgisnacht’.   Spooky!!
