CHILDREN at Blackshaw Lane Primary School got a taste of Spanish life when they spent the afternoon with overseas students.

The youngsters got the chance to quiz their visitors on their lives in Spain, and to learn some phrases from the students who were on an exchange trip with Oldham Sixth Form College.

The college is linked with a school in Torrelavega near Santander in Northern Spain, and the two have been involved in language and cultural exchange trips for several years.
