Year 7 and Year 9 students at the Hollins have received their pen pal letters all the way from Dijon, France! Our pupils were over the moon to learn more about their penpals and life in France.
It turns out that our French friends don’t wear school uniforms, which was quite a shock for some of our students…and while snails and frogs’ legs might be a typical French dish, their pen pals have explained that it’s not something they eat all the time. It’s been an incredible cultural exchange, and our pupils have learned so much!
We can’t wait to see what the pen pal programme at The Hollins has in store for our students.
