French

French from Reception through to Year 6 is taught within the curriculum.

​

Our aim is to promote pupils’ enjoyment in communicating in another language and take this enthusiasm forward into their secondary schools.

​

We endeavour to develop the linguistic competence of each child by introducing and practising vocabulary, grammar and alternative language structures. The last day of each academic year is very special with a French Picnic held for all the school and Kindergarten French group.

The Feast of the Kings - Epiphany

La fête des Rois - le 6 janvier

​

Upper school pupils acted out a popular French tradition for Epiphany. Each one received a slice of cake (la galette des Rois). The one who found the trinket ( in our case, a raisin) became queen or king for the rest of the lesson and gave orders ( in French!) to the others.
