So now let me tell you about some of the activities that your child can do during the after school sessions.
现在让我给大家介绍一些孩子在课后可以做的活动。
As well as being able to use the playground equipment, computers and the library, there is usually at least one special activity that children can do each day.
除了能够使用操场设备、电脑和图书馆外，孩子们通常每天至少可以做一项特殊活动。
For example, Spanish. We have a specialist teacher coming in every Thursday to give a basic introduction to the language through games and songs.
例如，西班牙语。我们每个星期四都会请一位专业老师来，通过游戏和歌曲对语言进行简单介绍。
She does two sessions:one for the over 8s and one for the younger children.
她教授两种课程：一种是针对8岁以上的孩子，另一种是针对年幼的孩子。
This is the only activity which we have to make an extra charge for–but it's well worth it.
这是我们唯一需要额外收费的活动，但这是非常值得的。
Once a week the children have the opportunity to do some music.
孩子们每周有一次机会感受音乐。
We're very lucky that one of our staff is a member of a folk band.
我们非常幸运，我们的一名工作人员是一个民间乐队的成员。
On Mondays, she teaches singing and percussion to groups of children.
每周一，她都会教孩子们唱歌和打击乐。
We do rely on parental support for this, so if any of you sing or play an instrument and would be prepared to help out at these sessions, we'd be delighted.
我们确实需要家长的支持，所以如果你们中有人会唱歌或演奏乐器，并准备在这些活动上提供帮助，我们将非常高兴。
Painting continues to be one of the most popular activities.
绘画仍然是最受欢迎的活动之一。
To begin with we weren't keen on offering this because of the extra mess involved, but children kept asking if they could do some art and so we finally gave in.
一开始，我们并不想组织这个活动，因为这会弄得一团糟，但孩子们一直在问他们是否可以做一些美术相关的事情，所以我们最终做出了让步。
Art is great for helping the children to relax after working hard at school all day.
画画是帮助孩子们在学校努力学习一整天后放松身心的好方法。
Yoga is something that we've been meaning to introduce for some time but haven't been able to find anyone available to teach it–until now that is.
瑜伽是我们一直想介绍的东西，但一直没有找到合适的老师，直到现在也没有找到。
So we'll see how this goes. Hopefully, children will benefit in all sorts of ways from this.
接下来我们会看看如何进行这项活动。希望孩子们能从中受益。
Cooking is another popular activity. They make a different sort of cake, or pizza or bread each week.
烹饪是另一项受欢迎的活动。他们每周制作不同种类的蛋糕、披萨或面包。
Although the younger children love doing it, we found that the mess was just too much, so we've decided to restrict this to the over 8s, as they are better able to clean up after themselves.
虽然年幼的孩子喜欢烹饪，但我们发现这太乱了，所以我们决定将年龄限制在8岁以上，因为他们能更好地清理自己弄脏的地方。
