We offer popular activities ranging from Aviation Française in the Junior School to the European Culture Society in the Middle and Upper Schools. In addition we actively encourage boys to participate in language competitions outside the College, including the Stephen Spender Prize, London Schools’ French and Spanish debating competitions, the HSBC / British Council Chinese Speaking Competition, UK-German Connection, UK Linguistics Olympiad and the European Commission’s Juvenes Translatores translation competition. We are very proud of our boys’ success in these competitions, most recently in the Juvenes Translatores and the Stephen Spender translation competitions.
