Twenty of our Primary Seven children went to Paris in April 2013. They visited the Arc d'Triumph, the Eiffel tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Sacre Cour, cruised the river Seine and of course spent the day in Disneyland Paris. They had stayed in the Explorers hotel on the outskirts of the Disneyland resort. Each day they travelled into Paris by train. This provided many opportunites for practising the French that they had learned in school with the locals.
Elmvale encourages children to participate in residential trips as it assists in further developing their independence and their confidence as well bringing learning to life and making it fun!
We are currently organising a trip to Paris in 2014 for thirty of our Primary Six children and are sourcing funding to subsidise the overall cost.
These pictures give a flavour of the 2013 trip.
