The group show their appreciation for the rendition of Happy Birthday.

A group of ten students in Year 10 and two in Year 12 are currently visiting Collège Béranger, our partner school in Péronne, near Amiens in France as part of their French studies.

During the visit, they will see what a French school is like by accompanying pupils of their own age to lessons, and create lasting relationships which will continue via email correspondence when they return to King James.

Prior to the visit and thanks to the powers of Skype, our students were able to see and speak to their hosts, who even sang Happy Birthday in French to Year 10 student Sarah, who was celebrating her 15th birthday that day.
