Trip to Paris

A group of over 30 pupils enjoyed a trip to Paris in March to learn about French culture, art and science. They enjoyed visiting the Musée d’Orsay, the main impressionist gallery with paintings by Degas, Cezanne, Renoir and Gaugin among others, exploring the Cité des Sciences, the Basilica de Sacre Coeur, the Montmartre and Ile de la Cité areas, and the Palace of Versailles. The highlight of the four days was a Bateau Mouche trip on the river Seine to see Paris by night and going up the Eiffel Tower.
