🎬 Spotlight Kids’ Film: Ernest et Célestine

This beautifully animated French cartoon follows Ernest, a kind bear, and Célestine, a brave little mouse, as they form an unlikely friendship despite the worlds that try to keep them apart. Filled with humour, tenderness, and watercolour-style art, it’s a touching story about kindness and courage: a lovely way to say au revoir.

🥐  Merci Guilaine !! ☕️

From the community at CHPS and particularly the French staff and students, we would like to say MERCI MILLE FOIS to Guilaine who will be leaving us at the end of November.

Guilaine has worked extremely hard and has always brought a lovely amount of energy to her work at CHPS. She has built lovely relationships with students, sharing with them her love of and skill with the French Language.

We wish her all the best for her new position.
