Children at Colegate learn French across both key stages 1 and 2. There is a penfriend programme in place for some of the children in Year 6. Children learn through many enjoyable activities such as using an interactive CD rom and singing French songs. Children learn how to count in French, name colours and animals and how to talk about themselves in French too.

Autumn 2007

In September, Year 6 visited Thomas Hepburn Comprehensive School for the whole day to improve our enterprise skills. In the morning we became duck manufacturers. We had to make and sell ducks to make as much profit as possible.
During the afternoon we were taught by the school staff, this helped us experience life at the Comprehensive school. It was great!!
