Captain Birdseye finishes half marathon fully baked

James — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 16:40:53 +0000

Captain Birdseye, aka James Herbertson - our Managing Director, finished the Run to the Beat half marathon in under two hours, despite sweltering conditions. Competing for the first time in this competition, James had to put up with blazing sunshine and 25 degrees temparatures. Dressed with sailors cap and beard, James did his best impression of Captain Birdseye - the popular marketing character of Fish Fingers - to raise money for the RNLI.

All happening in Newcastle

James — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 08:55:48 +0000

Our English school in Newcastle has just signed a 30 year lease on new premises at Gallowgate in the heart of Newcastle city centre.

They are moving into new much larger and more attractive premises just around the corner. Close to their student apartments at Charlotte House, I am sure that students will enjoy the new premises. I personally was shown around by Trevor, the school’s Managing Director, back in March when work was ‘in progress’.

Trevor does his 'Bob the builder' impression

Between now and December this year the whole team will be working very hard to refurbish and refit the new school with excellent classrooms, welfare and administration facilities.

New Design

We await with anticipation the Grand Opening in January 2010! Hopefully Answer English will be invited to the opening ceremony! If you are interested in being one of the first to enjoy classes in the new building, enjoying 2009 prices: Contact Us
