Cooking workshop in English for schools
It’s the workshop Barcelona schools ask for most, and for good reason. Students follow a recipe step by step entirely in English: they read the instructions, ask for ingredients, measure quantities and describe what they’re doing.
All the vocabulary is linked to an action and a result they can eat, so it sticks. It works just as well in nursery as in secondary: we change the recipe and the level of independence depending on the year group.
Crafts workshop in English
The second most requested workshop. Students build something with their hands following directions in English, which makes them understand instructions, ask for materials and describe what they’re doing.
It’s especially useful with shyer students: when their hands are busy, speaking stops being embarrassing. Each session is adapted to the group’s age and the materials available at the school.
Multi-sports workshop in English
English on the move. Games and sports activities where rules, instructions and teams are organised in English. Students don’t have time to translate in their heads: they respond.
It’s the workshop that works best with large groups and with students who associate English with sitting at a desk.
Seasonal themed workshops
Halloween, Christmas, Easter and Carnival are perfect occasions to reinforce in English what’s been covered in class, with a hands-on workshop and a finished product: Christmas cookies, Halloween decorations, Easter workshops.
These sessions are highly visible to families and fit effortlessly into the school calendar. Many schools start here before setting up a full series.
Science experiment workshops in English
Science in English, with short experiments students carry out themselves. They work on process vocabulary (mix, observe, measure, predict) and the ability to explain what’s happening and why.
It fits especially well with schools that already work on projects or teach subjects in English.
Music and storytelling workshops in English
Songs, rhythm, repetition and storytelling. It’s the format that works best with the youngest students, because music and stories hold their attention while the language comes in the most natural way there is.
With older students, storytelling becomes drama and speaking practice.
Gardening, trips and market visits
Planting, caring, observing and describing, in English and outside the classroom. It can be done in the school playground or a nearby green space, and it fits really well with schools working on sustainability or a school garden that want to add a language layer.
We also organise trips to Barcelona markets, where students identify products, ask about prices and describe what they see, all in English. It’s the activity closest to using the language for real, and the one they remember for months.
What if you want a different workshop?
The short answer is yes: we can organise any educational workshop or extra activity in English your school needs.
The easiest thing is to tell us the idea you have in mind and we’ll build it with you, adapted to the year group, the space and the time you have.
Hear from the schools.
