Welcome post



Every year the French department organises an exciting residential stay in France for all Year 8 pupils. This is a memorable trip for the girls and provides a rich educational and cultural experience. This year the trip will be from Sunday, June 18 to Saturday, June 24, 2017.

The centre we are visiting is called Maison Claire Fontaine. They have been organising successful trips for English schoolchildren for over ten years and offer a very exciting programme. The girls will have intensive French lessons every morning of their stay, followed by a wide variety of activities (with all instructions in French) during the course of the day. Activities on offer include cooking, tree adventures, kayaking, circus skills, sculpture, and many more. There will also be visits to local places of interest. You might like to look at their website:
