Each year pupils in Year 8 have the opportunity to spend a weekend cultural visit to Paris during the October half term. The itinerary includes a visit to Parc Astérix and a trip up the Effel Tower as well as other cultural and linguistic opportunities. They have a great time as their comments show!

‘It was by far the best school trip I’d been on. I wish it could have lasted longer! Being with my friends in a hotel room was really fun. The wake-ups were too early for me! Park Asterix was really good and the Eiffel Tower was brilliant.’ – Freya Phelps, 8E

'I really enjoyed the trip. The thing I most liked about it was Parc Asterix (a theme park). It was great to roam about and speak in French, being totally independent. I also LOVED the food.’ – Archie White 8S

'The hotel we stayed in was really nice and much nicer, cleaner and comfier than I expected. The only real thing I would have changed is to have made the trip longer.’ – Ethan Tattersall 8E
