Form 4 in Le Touquet

Date: Thursday 27 May 2010

On Monday 24th May the two Form 4 classes ventured across La Manche to Le Touquet, a quintessential French seaside resort.  The pupils practised their French by buying lunch  - though they were slightly put off the Poissonnerie due to the smell! Every single pupil managed to order something to eat and communicate in the French language. They were so proud to be able to put their language skills to practical use. 

 Afterwards we visited the fabulous and popular Aqualud, with its breathtaking pool and waterslides. The trip was so successful that some pupils have pleaded with their parents to return to le Touquet at half-term. 

 The children were brilliant during a long day out and showed great character in the stifling heat of the coach when the air conditioning failed on this hottest day of the year so far.
