🌍✈️ 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 👏✨
