Goodbye Queen's Gate 2017!

After six fantastic weeks, Discovery Summer Queen's Gate has come to an end! The final week was as busy as ever and we sure ended with a bang! The presentations on Friday afternoon were a testament to just how hard the students had been working all week. They were very creative and included stop motion videos and a news report. Building dinosaurs for the stop motion videos Students from Falcon class creating a poster on how to keep safe if a volcano were to erupt! The teens spent their final day at Discovery Summer on the London Eye! We would like to wish all our students the very best for the future and we hope to see some familiar faces back next year!

The players throw and catch the ball to one another across the circle and the bean must attempt to catch the ball mid air! Once the bean succeeds, he or she can go back in the circle and the player who threw the caught ball becomes the stupid bean! 2. The Number Game! ...

It's Wednesday of Week 6!

We have had a very busy Wednesday at Discovery Summer! From productive English lessons to team building activities, let's see what the students have been getting up to... The mornings at Queen's Gate are dedicated to English lessons. Each week the students work on projects depending on the weekly museum trip. This week we visited the Natural History Museum! In fitting with this we have projects on volcanoes, earthquakes and dinosaurs. Studying through project-based learning allows the students to get creative in their various projects whilst also learning important grammar and vocabulary! Kingfisher class at the Natural History Museum! In between lessons the students enjoy short breaks on our fantastic terrace. Break time is the perfect opportunity to make new friends, play games such as connect 4 or table tennis and chat to the teachers! Each day brings with it a new fun-filled afternoon programm...
