Year 8 Students Visit Paris

This week a group of our Year 8 students enjoyed a residential visit to Paris, experiencing the culture and history of the French capital.

Highlights of the trip included visiting the Eiffel Tower, a sightseeing cruise along the River Seine, and an exploration around the military museum and cathedral buildings at Les Invalides.

Students had the opportunity to experience local cuisine, making the most of the sunny weather by having an alfresco lunch in the beautiful Jardin de Tuileries, before browsing the local trinket stalls.
