FLAGS adorned the faces of students as Headington School celebrated its annual languages day.

The event celebrated languages spoken and taught at the girls’ school in Headington Road, and raised £327 for Link Ethiopia, including £160 made in 15 minutes from cupcake sales.

Activities finished with a Euro Factor concert, with staff and students performing songs in different languages.

Art teacher Kate Turnbull, who sang Abba’s Money, Money, Money with head of languages Rachael Pike, said: “It was fabulous.”

Pupil Alex Graves, 16, said: “It’s been great. My favourite part has been the facepainting.”

Krissy Satherley, 16, of Moreton-in-Marsh in Gloucestershire, added: “It was great fun and I can’t wait until next year.”

And April Bedford, 13, of Marcham, near Abingdon, said: “It was funny seeing the teachers dress up.”
