Hopelands Prep School & Nursery Celebrates the Spanish Language with Grandparents and Grandfriends Event

Hopelands Prep School was alive with colour, music, and community spirit during its recent Spanish-themed celebration, which welcomed over 60 Grandparents and Grandfriends from the school community.

A highlight of the event was the vibrant Spanish café, where Year 5 pupils served traditional delicacies including Spanish omelette, sangria, and a tempting selection of cakes – all warmly received by the guests. The day was brought to life by joyful musical performances from children across the school, from the youngest in Nursery to pupils in Year 4, showcasing their enthusiasm for the Spanish language and culture.

Year 6 pupils took to the stage with an engaging presentation about their forthcoming residential trip to Somiedo, while both Year 5 and 6 pupils shone as confident and enthusiastic tour guides, proudly leading visitors around the school.

Adding to the celebratory atmosphere was a themed photo booth, capturing happy moments throughout the day. Guests were also invited to share their own treasured school memories, which will soon be displayed around the school for all to enjoy.

The children relished the opportunity to share their learning with their extended families, and it was truly heartwarming to witness the joy and connection between generations throughout the day.

It was, without doubt, a day to remember, filled with laughter, learning, and a shared love of language and culture.
