Woolton Hill six-year-old graduates from Newbury language academy

A SIX-YEAR-OLD Woolton Hill girl was among recent graduates from a Newbury language academy.

The Vici Language Academy recently (Nov 8/9) hosted a graduation ceremony at the Chequers Hotel in Newbury for about 70 children and adults who have recently completed language programmes in French and Spanish.

The day comprised workshops, taster sessions and oral examinations and each participant - including six-year-old Tilly Puryer of Woolton Hill - was presented with a certificate by academy director, Nathalie Danon-Kerr.

Presentations were also made to students who had made the most progress, showed the most enthusiasm and for the best behaved children.

Ms Danon-Kerr said: “We’d like to thank everyone who attended the graduation as it shows a real commitment to their language learning. More than 70 people attended and it was lovely to see French and Spanish students of all levels together in an informal setting.”
