On Wednesday our Senior School pupils visited Paris with the French department. Spring has definitely sprung there with t-shirt weather taking them pleasantly a bit by surprise! The sun shone as they walked around the sites of central Paris with Mr Medhurst enriching the day with his detailed knowledge of the history and architecture of the city.
