Meet our Spanish workshop performers!
Inspiring pupils to become future linguists!
Our Spanish workshop performers will take your pupils on an incredible journey, encouraging them to love and practise their Spanish as we do, through storytelling and play. Our Spanish team of actors includes Lucy, and either Valentina or Jennifer as our native Spanish speakers.
In Búsqueda Del Tesoro, Lucy has gone to Spain on a treasure hunt. Her Spanish is a little rusty. Fortunately the pupils will be able to help her on her adventure! Lucy and the pupils will meet three Spanish characters: a flamenco dancer, Don Quijote de la Mancha and an aspiring Pablo Picasso. They do not speak English, but with mimes, games, dancing and singing everyone will be able to help each other in both languages.
Read on to find out a little more about us! Further down you can see our rehearsal pictures and videos!
