Language students recently had a taste of Spain following an exciting workshop.

Students got a flavour for the country and its culture, with an opportunity to sample a flamboyant Flamenco workshop as well as the chance to enjoy some tasty tapas.

Our thanks to all those who participated, and had the chance to join in with some lively, expressive moves as well as have a go using some traditional castanet instruments.

With all that excitement, it was easy to work up quite an appetite, however, food was on hand as well, in the shape of some tasty Spanish cuisine, including...

Chicken and Rice

Potato

Spanish Omelette

...dishes and snacks.
