European Day of Languages

26th of September was the European Day of Languages and Alexika celebrated with a trip to school – Directors Mark and Sabine Robinson went to Addingham Primary School. Mark gave an assembly presentation to the 270 pupils about Germany and the German language, and Sabine spent the morning in classrooms answering questions about Germany and making potato salad German style. Mark has spoken to secondary schools over the years but this was the first time speaking to the age range of 4-11 years - and the level of enthusiasm was very stimulating!
