Normandy Residential
Posted on 07/10/2024Some of our Samuel Ryder Academy KS4 French students enjoyed a wonderful trip visiting the cultural and historical region of Normandy for 4 nights.
They visited some beautiful French cities to take in the local culture and way of life whilst having opportunities to practice speaking French in situ.
These included the stunning harbour town of Honfleur, the prestigious world heritage site of Mont St Michel and the cities of Caen and Bayeux, each having their own historical significance.
In addition, students toured some of the most poignant places relevant to World War II history and the D-Day landings, including the American cemetery at Colleville, the 360 degree cinema at Arromanches and some of the D-Day landing beaches; an incredible opportunity to gain a better understanding of what happened on 6th June 1944.
