Another big day in Paris meeting the Mona Lisa, the Venus of Milo among so many others in the Louvre. After a lovely lunch through the Tuileries gardens we were treated to an incredible afternoon with Vincent Van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Monet, Manet, Cézanne at the Museum D’Orsay. After a long day we relaxed on…

Landed in the city of lights! It has been a very busy day, witnessing the Veneration of the Crown of Thorns at the Notre Dame Cathedral. We enjoyed our first baguette and there was no better way to end the day than climbing the Eiffle Tower and overlooking Paris from up high.

And they’re off! Yesterday we farewelled our French jet setters. We look forward to hearing about al their adventures in the coming days.

On 4 April 2019, 23 students from Years 10 and 11 ventured out of Melbourne and halfway across the globe to France, to experience French school, culture, language and life. Follow their journey here through their photos and reflections.
