Monday 17th – Morning

After a quiet night the children were introduced to the breakfast routine.

Meals are ‘semi-self-service’, relying on the children to distribute the bowls, glasses, cutlery etc. on each table. There was a fairly steep learning curve, but by lunchtime it was getting smoother.

First stop after breakfast was a visit to the lake adjacent to the centre, which was a quiet and calming experience first thing in the morning.

Then it was off to Ecole du Lac to renew friendships – another breakfast always helps!

Time for a hunt round the school to name different features in French and English.

To round off the morning, one of Maître Stéphane’s bilingual Kahoot quizes.

After all that brainwork, time to eat! Back to the centre to enjoy a 4 course lunch, to build up up for the afternoon in Poitiers – of which more anon.
