Spanish Games Night
I mentioned this event a while ago and I’ve just been trying to find a date! So, Spanish games night will debut at CasaLingua on Saturday 10th May and the doors open at 19.00.
Kim will provide a variety of authentic Spanish games and a bit of key language to help you communicate in Spanish as much as possible of the course of the evening. Part of the fun will, however, involve working out the game rules ;)
Booking is required by April 30th. A minimum of 10 people is needed in order to run the event, so tell your (Spanish speaking) friends and let’s have some fun!

Floral workshop
Join us at CasaLingua for a hands-on workshop led by Egle from the amazing Bloomhead. You will craft your very own planted sedum and ivy wreath—a beautiful, living decoration that will continue to thrive on your front door for months to come. Using traditional floristry materials like moss and wire, you’ll learn how to assemble and care for your wreath, making it a lasting piece of natural beauty.
The cost is £40* per person (materials and light refreshments included). Booking is essential (places are limited)
*CasaLingua students are entitled to an early bird discount

Spanish & Italian for Holidays!
David and Susie are both really excited to be delivering these fun short courses. With a relaxed approach, our supportive tutors will be helping people who are heading off on holiday (and wanting to communicate) learn some key phrases and vocabulary. Each lesson focuses on a different part of the holiday so that you feel comfortable greeting people and introducing yourself, ordering drinks and snacks, finding your way around town and asking for help. Vocab lists and worksheets are provided every week so that you leave your lessons armed with your language ‘toolkit’ - that you will hopefully put in practice on holiday!
The cost of the course is £60 per person and places are limited.




‘Call my Quaff”
On Saturday 22nd February CasaLingua is delighted to bring ‘Call my quaff’ to Consett - a fun evening of wine tasting run by independent, qualified tutors from Newcastle Wine School!
Over the 2 hours you will taste and learn about wines from Italy, France and Spain. To add to the fun, the two guest presenters will each describe the wines that you have in front of you - but can you tell which one of them is telling the truth? Either way, you get to drink several glasses of delicious wine! There will also be an interval where you will sample a selection of cheeses and charcuterie washed down, of course, with some extra wine.

CasaLingua Pub Quiz
On Saturday 7th December, CasaLingua students came along - despite the driving wind and rain! - to CasaLingua HQ for a night of Christmas fun with a language themed pub quiz, led by Kim!
After a couple of hours of hard and competitive quizzing, the winners were revealed. Well done to Natalie and her family who went home with a £20 voucher to put towards their next set of lessons. Look out for future quizzes as this will definitely been something that runs again!

Grand opening!
CasaLingua has started a new chapter! On Saturday 2nd November, I welcomed new and existing students along to see my lovely new home! I’m really pleased with the way the room looks and feels and I look forward to seeing lots more of you at my future classes and events!

A taste of Italy!
This event was hosted by The Land of Oak and Iron and, as was the case for the Spanish event, it gave the attendees a taste of both Italian food and language!

Festive French
UPDATE: UNFORTUNATELY, THIS EVENT IS NO LONGER RUNNING. PLEASE CONTACT KIM IF HAVE ANY QUERIES
Are you looking for something Festive? Something fun? Something French? If so, look no further! CasaLingua knows how to strike that perfect balance to make sure that children learn language and develop cultural awareness without compromising on fun or festivity. Come along!

Seasonal Spanish
You may have already experienced a CasaLingua Christmas event - last year the event was so popular that I ran a second date!
If you're keen to experience some CasaLingua sparkle and seasonal Spanish in the run up to Christmas then you should book now and avoid missing out as there is only one calendared date this year!

Spooky Spanish…
On the day of halloween, why not get started early and get the kids dressed up and down to my Day of the Dead extravaganza! Kids will learn all about the different Mexican traditions that surround this celebration as well as some key words connected to the celebration. It's one of my favourites!




Spanish at Easter 2024
On Wednesday 10th April CasaLingua brought a Spanish feel to the Easter holidays as children learned all about how Easter is celebrated in Guatemala! The next children’s event will be advertised soon and will be in late July.

Carnaval 2024
February was all about ignoring the North-east weather and having some carnival fun!

Feliz Navidad 2023
December arrived and CasaLingua hosted two really busy kid’s Christmas events for Spanish. Feliz Navidad!
