French Day, c’était super! We had another fun and successful French Day! 

It was a chance to fire up our pupils’ passion for language learning and their curiosity about all things French and the Entente Cordiale. From Pre-Prep all the way to Prep, the children were dressed in bleu, blanc et rouge and so was the school!

Everyone had the opportunity to explore new aspects of French culture by listening to an accordion concert, dressing up like a French person and having their picture taken at the photo booth. We also discovered some delights of French cuisine with boeuf bourguignon, baguette, saucisson and profiteroles, speaking French and playing games with Year 8 as well as attending Mme Buttery’s amazing assembly about the Paris Olympics in Pre-Prep, listening to a French prayer during Chapel, visiting our grenadine bar run by our Year 7 pupils in Prep and much more. Teachers across the school added a French touch to their lessons, Merci! As you can see, it was a very busy day.

It was also a chance to admire the beautiful menus designed by Year 2 showcased around the Dining Rooms and to celebrate the winners of our French Bunting Competition. The quality and creativity of the entries was incredible! Please find photos and results below.

A l’année prochaine (Let’s do it again next year).
