Year 12 Exchange to Lycée Hoche, Versailles

Journalist Chris Dennis takes questions from Year 9 pupils.

‘I thought last Wednesday’s event with Chris Dennis was really interesting. In my opinion, highlights were talking to him about all the famous sportsmen he had interviewed in the past and also the mock interview that he did. It was very inspiring because journalism would be an interesting job and it made me want to continue learning languages!’ Hugo, Year 9

Year 13 Upper School ML Extended essay seminar, September 2018 ‘Having not only to research and write, but also present my topic pushed me to take greater interest in a topic which I had previously known little about. Alexander, Year 13 ‘I thought that the fact it was done during the holidays meant that we didn’t have to worry about missing school work and catching up and gave us more free time to spend with our exchanges.’ Alex, Year 12 ‘Overall an amazing experience, I’d highly recommend to anyone who is doing French A level. The trip really improved my French and I am going back to see my French exchange in France during the October half term for a week’, Jamie, Year 12
