Our year 7s have been trѐs occupés this term, learning how to talk about leur famille and give the names and ages of family members. Last week they were fnally ready to use all that hard work and create letters to send to their new pen pals on the other side of the Channel!

Our year 7s were really interested to learn about some of the ways that la vie scolaire differs in France and are looking forward to learning even more from their pen pals.

We are sure the students in sixiѐme at Le Collѐge Quatre Vents, who are currently learning about Londres, will be delighted to hear from us with our descriptions of our families.

We can’t wait to hear back from them with everything they have been learning about our capital city!

We are sure you’ll agree that the French students will be trѐs impressionnés with the quality of our work!

Just before half term, year 11 were fortunate enough to experience some hands-on medical procedures. The team bought in all sorts of equipment allowing students to try key-hole surgery, use an ultrasound machine and find out what it is like to experience different eye conditions. They had worksheets to complete with their findings as they spent 50 minutes discovering some of the different careers in the health sector.

We are looking forward to sharing the experience with year 10 on 17th March and year 9 in June.
