St Bede’s students once again celebrated European Day of Languages in style this year. All forms completed a quiz on recognising different languages, including those spoken by their teachers. The Lower Fourth participated in a morning of dedicated languages-related activities, including dancing Flamenco with Mrs Morillo, playing Boules on the lawn with Mr Gerardo and making avatars that spoke different languages with Mr Murugathas. They then attended an online workshop led by Routes into Languages, an organisation made up of local universities, in which they learnt about the importance of learning languages and heard from a panel of university students with a Q&A.

Students participated enthusiastically and asked pertinent questions. They were commended for their efforts and curiosity.

St Bede’s Bake-Off Magic!

Once again, our talented bakers at St Bede’s showcased their culinary creativity in this year’s MFL House Bake-Off, held in celebration of the European Day of Languages.

The competition resulted in an impressive array of beautifully crafted and delicious-looking baked goods, making the judges’ decision incredibly difficult!

Congratulations to our runners-up:

• Maddie P (U3 Magdalene)

Each received an Amazon gift card and valuable House Points for their fantastic efforts.

A special congratulations goes to our overall winner, Issac S (U3 Magdalene), whose stunning Dutch-inspired cake earned him an Amazon gift card and well-deserved recognition!

And finally, a big shoutout to Magdalene House—this year’s winning house—for submitting the most entries, including two prize-winning bakes.

Well done to all our bakers for their hard work and creativity!
