# Y7 Culture Club is a crafty success!

**On Tuesday 5th November we have our first gathering of the MFL Culture Club. It was full of many eager Year 7s and lots of Year 9 MFL Culture Club Mentors. We did arts and crafts based on Día de los Muertos, a Mexican tradition. We decorated cookies in the style of Sugar Skulls. The Disney movie, Coco, was on in the background just in case anyone want to relax and watch the movie. Watching all my fellow Year 9s and Year 7s get along together made my day! I hope that everyone continues coming along to this weekly club and has fun!**
