🌍✈️ An unforgettable experience!
During half term, three of our students spent a week in France on work experience, living with a host family and gaining hands-on experience working in a local café ☕🇫🇷
From improving their language skills to building confidence and independence, they made the most of every moment and thoroughly loved the experience!
A brilliant opportunity and memories that will last a lifetime 👏✨

It's an important time of the year with assessments so it was really useful to hear from Emma about some great ways to deal with the stresses that go along with exams.
Thanks to Emma for taking time to speak to our students and offer useful information and advi#cowleysixthformh#StHelense#DevelopingLifeReadyLearnersr#cowleyconversationstions ... See MoreSee Less
