Following a successful trip by Y7 to the Tyneside cinema to watch a French film earlier this month, some of our Y8 Hispanophones went to see the Spanish adventure film ‘Zipi y Zape y el Club de la Canica’.

“I thought the film was a combination of Harry Potter meets The Goonies.  I didn’t think I was going to enjoy it at first, but I am glad I was proved wrong.  The characters were eccentric and it captured my attention the whole way through.”  Benji

“I found the movie hilarious and not at all what I was expecting.  I loved the chance to see a foreign film on the big screen as it opened up my eyes to other cultures.”  Jack

“It was a great opportunity to learn some new vocabulary – one of my favourite new words is ‘cursi’ which means tacky!  We did some language activities after the film which helped our understanding and our group also had to present a description about one of the main characters.”  Amy
