Remove French Exchange
View from the Eiffel Tower
20 Remove students have just returned from a French exchange visit to our partner school, the Collège de Notre Dame de Bury, north of Paris.
Warmly welcomed by their host families, they enjoyed a taste of school life and several excursions into the heart of the city. The charm of strolling through the capital was slightly harder to appreciate in sub-zero temperatures, but this was a good excuse to slip into the Musée d'Orsay, Les Invalides, the palace of Versailles and Notre Dame, among other celebrated sites. Some even made it to that temple of high culture, Eurodisney.
The linguistic benefits were felt by all ('we understood every word of The Artist') and we look forward with anticipation to their return visit in June.
