French is so much more than just a language. A big part of French is linked to its culture – places, people, cuisine and much more.

This Tuesday, all Year 8 students had the privilege to be immersed into French culture at le Relais Bressan, a French restaurant in Flaxton. During the visit, students discovered an authentic French setting while enjoying typical French food. 

In Term 3, Year 8 French students have been studying a unit on food and shopping. This restaurant excursion provided them with a real-life opportunity to use expressions recently learned in class and order their meals in French. 

As you can see from the photos below, the children enjoyed the experience, I know I did.
