Last month we went on the Year 9 French/ History trip.
On the first day we arrived at school and got onto the coach to France. As soon as we arrived, we went straight to a cider farm where we had a tour from the owner and tested some juice flavours including apricot, cloudy apple and grape, after buying an awful lot of juice we got back on the coach and went to our hotel.
… we went to the French school to meet our pen friends and to show our amazing presentation in French …

On the Tuesday we went to the WWI trenches where we were given a tour through the old communication tunnels and got to look around the trenches and went to a small museum. Later on, we had some free time where we were set loose in town to stuff our faces with waffles.
The next day we went to the French school to meet our pen friends and to show our amazing presentation in French, we then went to the Nausicaa Sea Life Centre. We went around and saw a HUGE fish and got to touch the sting rays, as well as watching a sea lion show.
The next morning, we went to have a pastry demonstration with a crazy baker only to get scared to death every time he hit his rolling pin on the table. After that we went to a quarry that the Canadians used during the war to ambush the Germans and in the afternoon, we went into town for more shopping. In the evening some of the braver people tried the escargot at dinner, before bed we had a rather entertaining disco to end our trip.
