July news
Our first newsletter has been written and distributed. It contains the details for our forthcoming events and can be downloaded from the website. I plan a newsletter every 3 months to keep students, old and new, informed of what's happening in HS Language Services.
We are offering 8 courses for adults from September, daytime as well as evening. We are branching out to Welton and Washingborough. I find this very exciting, and hope that they will be well attended.
These courses will not just be taught by me, but by some excellent tutors who will be joining HS Language Services in September. I look forward to introducing them more formally very soon.

Association for Language Learning (ALL)
I have been a member of ALL for about 9 years, and have never really participated in any of the events, just looked forward to reading the journals and receiving news via email.
This ALL London event spoke to me, however, and I took the opportunity to attend this meeting at the Italian Cultural Institute in Belgrave Square.
I attended two sessions: Alternative Accreditation and Primary Language teaching. Both sessions were extremely useful. The AGM was also included in the programme and many issues surrounding language learning were discussed. The main concerns are GCSE examinations and the severity of marking and the quality and provision of Primary language teaching. More information can be found here.
I look forward to attending more of these events.

Twinning Associations
The Scopwick and Kirkby Green Twinning Association has been organising visits to and from Sceaux-sur-Huisne in France for the last 13 years. It is an excellent opportunity to experience live in France, and strong friendships have been forged over the years.
We have just had our annual twinning visit this weekend, which has been hugely successful. It is very heartwarming to see French and English together, communicating in a mix of French, English and gesture. It would be great if more families became involved with their local twinning association - everyone gets so much out of it in terms of confidence, friendship, communication.
We had a trip to Burghley House on the Saturday, with a Race Night in the evening. We then had a morning decorating Easter eggs on Sunday, with a visit to Lincoln in the afternoon, and an evening of games, including a Beetle Drive.
It is our turn to visit our French friends in France next year. If you would like to join us, or for further information, please telephone Rosa on 01526 322292.
Details of other twinning associations in the area can be found here.
