This was the first year that Chanel College participated fully in #ThinkLanguages week organised by Post Primary Languages Ireland. And what a great selection of events we had!
We got off to a fantastic start on Monday morning when over 80 TY students gathered in the Colin Room to participate in a live nationwide language & culture quiz.
Well done to the winning team of Callum Brown, Killian Maher, Aaron Graham and Tadgh May, who came 1st across our Chanel students, but also came an amazing 6th Nationwide out of 177 schools!!!
Then it was the turn of over 30 TY students to take part in Chinese Character Zine-making workshops. From mastering the art of Chinese ink calligraphy to diving into fascinating cultural insights, they embraced the beauty of China’s rich heritage while creating their own unique zines.
Huge thanks to Heather @artmaker_dublin for hosting this amazing workshop!
Finally it was the turn of TY French students to get creative in a DCU Workshop making their own comic strips (bandes dessinés).
They continued their cultural adventure ordering tasty crêpes in French in Le Petit Breton Crêperie, Drumcondra for a full authentic experience.
Well done to all the TY students for getting involved and making our #ThinkLanguages week such a success.
