Year 6 Take on Normandy

Our incredible Year 6 pupils took on an adventure of a lifetime with a week in Normandy.

The week started with an epic trip from Plymouth to Roscoff, with an overnight ferry ride to contend with. Fresh from the boat, our pupils headed to Morlaix and onto St Malo to visit an aquarium, before making their way to the chateau they would call home for the week.

Their days were jam-packed with adventures, including a trip to the Bayeux Tapestry, a visit to the D-Day landing beaches, and the Caen Memorial Museum. They practised their French with visits to hypermarkets and a local market and had plenty of gastronomic experiences, including a trip to a caramel and cheese farm and a French-themed evening that included escargot.

On their final day, staff and pupils visited Mont Saint-Michel for some sightseeing, ice cream and shopping.

The pupils were incredible throughout the trip and were excellent ambassadors for the school and their families. We are extremely proud of this year group and feel privileged to have shared this experience with them. A huge thank you to Mr Frewer and all of the staff who made the trip possible. Merci beaucoup to all!
