Year 8 Trip to France

40 students and staff went on a trip to Normandy, France during Enrichment Week. During the stay at the beautiful Prieuré St Gabriel, students had the opportunity to visit Mont St Michel, the Bayeux Tapestry, the Beach at Carolles, a goat's cheese farm and a chocolate factory. We were greeted by Mado, our ‘Animatrice’ and group leader in France.  Mado was brilliant at encouraging the use of French, hosted our stay and made sure our trip was enjoyable and ran smoothly. She and the HB staff certainly did ensure that this happened and, as a result, the students and staff had the most amazing time! 

The staff at the Centre, the Chef and the Driver were hugely complimentary about our students and said that they were the best school group they have ever had in terms of respectfulness, kindness and curiosity! I think it’s safe to say that everybody had the most amazing trip and some wonderful memories were made!
