27 Year 10s travelled to Paris for a fun filled weekend where they experienced the real benefits of studying a foreign language and practice their GCSE skills in real time with real locals.
During the weekend, we explored Paris, ascended the Eiffel Tower and went on a river boat tour. We walked around the Louvre Gardens, toured a fromagerie where we enjoyed a tour of the facilities and tasted all the local cheeses. We also went to a market to buy food using our language skills.
At the chateau, we enjoyed a range of evening activities, celebrated a birthday, cooked crepes and partied in the pool every day.
Students arrived back to England with big smiles on their faces and a new taste for travel and exploration.
