Event Type: 
Workshop
Region: 
South East
Location: 
Oxford Brookes University

The aim of the day is to help schools encourage students to study Modern Languages at School and then at University. The event will be examining how countries from around the world celebrate the Day of the Dead, before focusing on Mexico. Some of the activities will be in the target language (Spanish) but there will also be hands-on activities such as paper cutting (papel picardo) and the setting up of an altar celebrating the dead. Students will also have the opportunity to ask questions of undergraduate student ambassadors.
