Inspire modern foreign languages into the hearts of your students. Through Olea's Private Joke, the card game, students will invent their own words, learn up to 8 different languages, strengthen their intercultural communication skills, and be inspired to learn languages.
Olive came to speak to our entire Year 9 cohort on a Friday afternoon. It was clearly the highlight of the week for many of them: she was entertaining and passionate about her subject, keeping the attention of a group of 140 with remarkable poise, while getting them engaged in a range of fun and thought-provoking activities. They loved the games, as did the teaching staff present. A really welcome boost for languages from an enthusiastic speaker. We would certainly like to welcome Olive back to King’s for talks with other year groups in the future."
