The Modern Foreign Languages Department day trip for Year 7 pupils to the historic town of Boulogne in the Nord-Pas-de Calais region of France. Similar visits have been undertaken in the past by the Modern Foreign Languages Department and every year has proved to be a great experience. This is an incredibly beneficial day out, with pupils practising and building on the French they have learnt this year.
Pupils commented very positively about the trip, they enjoyed all the activities throughout the day. They were encouraged to work independently and also in groups to apply their language skills to different situations and contexts (café experience, treasure hunt, shopping) they also learned a lot about French culture and history. The visit of a sweet factory was particularly fun and enriching! Here are some feedbacks from pupils:
“I thought it was full of great fun activities that I had not done before like the sweet factory visit, the treasure hunt or the café experience. Overall it was one of my favourite school trip I’ve ever been on. It was great!” Jack Halkyard
“I thought it was the best trip I’ve ever been on” Nathaniel Allen
“I think it was a very good trip with a lot of interesting things to learn!” Jaimin Bhatt
“It was a very fun trip and the activities were exciting!” Frazer Briers
“Is was a great experience! Learning about the French culture and being with my friends. I enjoyed working independently and talk to people in French!” Callum Middleton

“I enjoyed every moment of the trip!” Douglas Phillips

Language Arts (what they used to call English) challenges his brain. And yet, this year, he has made so many strides.
And then on Monday, his teacher shut him down. Minutes into a presentation that he and his brother and a friend had poured their hearts and weekend into, she pressed stop. And told the class that it was an example of three boys who hadn't read the book.
We (yes, the "we" of motherhood) are all rocked. Cracked. Shaken. But not shattered. This too shall pass.

Strolling along the street after supper, we saw this delightful "Chinglish" sigh that made absolutely no sense.... Is it a Language school or a coffee shop?
