Language B HS Students - Go to France

Recently the 10^th grade students from ACS Egham went on language trips to Salamanca in Spain and Rouen in France for Spanish and French students respectively. I was one of the students who went to France and all in all I had a very enjoyable trip. We departed the school early on Monday morning and then proceeded to take the bus all the way across to France via the Eurotunnel.

Once we arrived we had a few hours to walk around the city to get something to eat and to see the school where we would be going during the week. We met up with our host families and then went back to the houses where we would be staying in groups of 1, 2 or 3. During the week we went to school for 3 hours where we learnt about French culture, French grammar, information about the local area and other such things.

After school we had time for lunch and then on the different days we went to various locations around Normandy. The trip was very educational and everyone had a really good time. It was also a good bonding experience for old and new students alike.
