Streams Learning Hub
Language Cafe
Wednesdays are dedicated to cultural exchange and global citizenship. At our Language Café, learners practice French, German and Spanish through conversation and interactive activities.
​
We have beginner and post beginner French, Spanish and German as well as intermediate Spanish workshops led by Matthew, Heidi and Grace - language students at the University of Bristol (UoB) and supported by Fabienne.
Learn through an immersive language experience and link to our Duolingo classroom to continue the fun at home making unlimited hearts possible!
To enable the facilitator to build on learning and the development of skills each week, we request that your young person commits for a six week block.

Some learners are keen to be with us for the whole Wednesday; join our Language Cafe in the morning and then stay for the afternoon Functional Skills workshops.
Book in for both sessions and stay for lunch 1-2pm. Remember to bring lunch!
The heart of the Hub is that we co-create with our community, our learners, parents and collaborators. We will always look to explore all requests and see what we can make happen. Last year we had parents ask if we would run some more formal workshops offering Maths and English qualifications. There are some great colleges in the city who offer Maths and English GCSE something we do not want to do. We have decided to offer Functional Skills Maths and English, a GCSE equivalent.

The sessions will run either 2-3pm or 3-4pm with the taught time being 50 mins, which feels a good amount of time to focus. Lerners will be encouraged to continue some self directed study at home - there are endless online resources and printed books to enable this process.
We are partnering with Pass Functional Skills (PFS) to enable access to the online learning platform which enables learners to continue their learning at home. As we are choosing to partner with PFS the discount for accessing the platform and exam fee is significantly reduced. Read more here.
