2023 Canterbury Spanish Language Festival | Photo Gallery!
Hola Canterbury Community!
Today was a fiesta of excitement for our Prep – Year 6 students, as they immersed themselves in our Spanish Language Festival.
This celebration of Mexican and Central American culture, allowed our students to participate in diverse activities, based on cultural arts and crafts, music, dancing and food.
A huge 'gracias' to our Secondary School Spanish language students who supported our endeavours to bring this brand-new event to fruition.
And to our fantastic performers Duo Serenata, who wowed the crowd with songs like Despacito and the Macarena, and perhaps inspired Canterbury's longest ever Conga line.
The entire photo gallery from this event can be found on our Facebook Page HERE.
Check out this collaborative art piece by our Junior School students of the Quetzalcoatl, a Mesoamerican deity in Aztec culture - derived from the Nahuatl language and means 'Precious Serpent'.

Kirrily answered students' questions on effective inductions, understanding company culture, and writing position descriptions.

Secondary School Ethics Olympiad
Secondary School Ethics Olympiad
Selected students in the Secondary School sat comfortably around a table in our Pedagogy Room today, where they participated in the Ethics Olympiad via Zoom. ️
This Olympiad is a collaborative competition where students analyse and discuss real-life, timely issues online.
Unlike a debate, students are not assigned opposing views; instead, they support the position they feel is most authentic and win by exhibiting a more honest and thoughtful perception of the cases.

Today, we held our 2023 Canterbury College Junior School Public Speaking Competition, where selected students from Years 3-6 aspired to entertain, persuade or inform their audience with a particular topic.
This practical approach gave our students hands-on experience to demonstrate the impact and influence of language on their audience.
Our judges awarded them points based on the structure of their speech, whether it was well-paced, had consistent volume, was clear and audible, and if it utilised technical or emotive vocabulary alongside their original context.
The student's body language was also critical in garnering points and enhancing delivery effectiveness.
Well done to these brave students for stepping up and participating in something most people fear!
