Let’s Eat Crêpes!

Last week, our First and Second Year pupils celebrated “La chandeleur” in style! Thanks to our brilliant catering team, a makeshift kitchen was set up in the very beautiful Leathem Room. First and Second Years were happy to share this special moment with Marcus C. a very well known and liked Upper Sixth Form pupil among the French Junior Club. Marcus very kindly improvised as our “crêpes” cook. Surrounded by very excited and supportive junior pupils Marcus made a perfect batter in “un tour de main”. As Marcus was cooking the pancakes with more and more expertise, he also managed to devise a game in French to help pupils wait their turn to be served. First and Second Years discussed animatedly the choice of filling for their crêpes and practiced even more vocab in French such as “le citron”, “le sucre”, “le miel”. 

A big thank you to Marcus for his help, enthusiasm and kindness. Well done as well to First and Second Year pupils for their eagerness for French and their impeccable behaviour in our improvised French kitchen. An experience to repeat avec plaisir!
