Year 10 and 11 French Excursion

On the 10th of March, the Year 10 and 11 French classes went on an excursion to Palace Cinema to celebrate the annual French Film Festival. This year, we watched ‘Le Secret de Khéops’ (Treasure Hunters), which was about an archaeologist going on an unexpected journey to find King Khufu’s lost treasure that was hidden in Paris, along with his grandson and daughter.

At the start of period 2, both classes met at the Cohen undercroft to begin the excursion. We received a delicious pain au chocolat to eat while we walked to the cinemas. We then attended the screening of the movie before returning to school for an assortment of French pastries as well as baguettes and cheese. The movie was very enjoyable and interesting and allowed us to further develop our understanding of the French language. We particularly liked the very excitable old man, the absurd plot, and hearing some familiar expressions in context. We had lots of fun on this excursion and look forward to more French excursions!
