Some of Marine Academy Primary’s Year 6 pupils have returned from an incredible residential trip to Paris, full of memories and new experiences. From exploring the iconic Eiffel Tower to tasting escargot, the trip was packed with excitement and adventure.
The children spent their days soaking in the sights of Paris, visiting landmarks such as the Arc de Triomphe, and the Sacré-Cœur. They did of course also have a day at Disneyland Paris taking on the big thrill rides, experiencing the parade and watching the visually impressive Lion King show. The trip included conquering the steps to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower and participating in the PGL Olympics which the pupils handled with plentiful enthusiasm.
Their evenings included a lively disco where they learned classic dance moves and chose their favourite tunes. The children also enjoyed delicious dinners, which included fresh French pastries and they also got to cook up some culinary delights of their own. Some of the bravest pupils even tried a French delicacy, escargot!
With tired feet but full hearts, the Year 6 children now return home, bringing back treasured memories that will last a lifetime.
