Bastille Day highlights 

Quelle journée fantastique! What a fabulous day PMPS had on 25th July, when we (slightly belatedly) celebrated Bastille Day. It was great to see students and staff getting into the Bastille Day spirit at school, dressing up and enjoying all the activities. 

As always, the food and cooking activities were a big hit, with making les crêpes, les tartes au citron et les croque-monsieurs a highlight for many students. An additional thank you to the PFA for their sale of croissants at lunchtime.

The students also experienced a variety of French crafts and games. The Year Fours created Bilboquets, a French Cup-and-Ball game, the Preps made some amazing Mardi Gras masks and the Year Threes reenacted the famous Paris Waiter Race. 

Lots of prizes were given out for best costumes in each class. Merci beaucoup to Ella and Milena, our Language Captains, for selecting the winners. With so many creative costumes to choose from, it was by no means an easy task!
