Year 8 Dual Languages French Trip to St Mary CoE Primary School

Bonjour! On Monday 7th July, 30 Year 8 students took part in an exciting trip to St Mary CoE Primary School where they taught fantastiques and amusantes French lessons to three Year 6 classes. For their end of year project, the class were tasked with an exciting opportunity to become French Language Ambassadors. This involved planning and teaching a French lesson to a Year 6 class. After 3 weeks of hard work, preparation and practice, our students became French teachers for an afternoon and had a fantastic experience teaching the language they have been learning this year. Both the Year 6 pupils and their class teachers were very impressed and complimentary after the lessons. Bravo et bon travail!

I really enjoyed teaching Year 6! They listened and did the activities very well, and they were particularly engaged in the games we prepared for them. They were so lovely!

It was a phenomenal experience! Teaching younger students taught me teamwork, organisation skills and helped me with being more confident. The Year 6 pupils were very also very engaged!

I loved having to prepare and organise a lesson that was interactive for the year 6 students! They really enjoyed it, and it was a really nice experience for me too.

I really enjoyed teaching the Year 6s and it was great experience for building confidence. The pupils listened really well and were keen to complete the activities we had prepared.

Teaching the Year 6s was such a fun experience! It really showed me how it feels when you are in the teacher’s shoes and how much it means when you are teaching younger pupils that are really kind and interested.
