Aberdeen City Schools

Europe Direct, based at Aberdeen City Central Library, organised a Euro Quiz for P6 pupils from Aberdeen City schools. Ruth Gould and Hazlehead Academy pupil Shuya Zuo collated questions testing pupils’ knowledge of European Food, Celebrities, Animals and Flags.

Six schools - Bramble Brae, Dyce, Hazlehead, Seaton, St Peter’s and Westpark - gathered at Aberdeen Beach Ballroom on Friday 25th September. They were greeted by language students from Aberdeen University and the 2015 GET students.

The morning started with games set in 4 stations: Italian “Bingo”, German “Hangman”, Spanish “Pin the Country” and French colours “Corners”. The language students monitored the games and pupils rotated to a new station at the blow of a whistle. After a break, the pupils sat in teams of four for the “Big Quiz”.

The teachers and pupils involved enjoyed the event which was an opportunity to have fun while practising languages
