We launched the third Grove/Optima Language Project on 26th September and are delighted to announce that, this year, we are being supported by the Newark-on-Trent Twinning Association.

Sixty pupils from The Grove School will take part in the challenge to ‘sell’ the importance of learning languages to a team of judges. The presentations will be made on Friday 4th November at Newark Beacon Innovation Centre.

The panel of judges that have volunteered their time to support this project include:

• James Fountain, Chairman of Newark Business Club
• Suzannah Hutton, Business Language Champions
• Rita Crowe, Chairman of Newark-on-Trent Twinning Association.  

We have been overwhelmed with positive responses from the local business community, who will take part in surveys and support the teams with their research for the presentations.
