FROM painting flags, to tasting foods from around the world, the children of Omagh County PS enjoyed a global menu of celebrations as they marked this year’s ‘European Day of Languages’ in fantastique style.

And what’s more, Year Six pupils also welcomed Spanish students from Omagh Academy to showcase the importance of speaking another language.
