School exchange success

Students from Bassingbourn Village College travelled by train to their exchange school in Le Grand Serre, a small town in the south east of France.

Accompanied by Ms Nutley, Mrs Boxall and Mrs Piggott, 20 students from years 7-10 took part in the exchange which saw them staying with students that they had already met on the first leg of the exchange when they visited Bassingbourn in January. This is the third year that the exchange has been running.

Students attended classes at Collège Joseph Bédier as well as exploring local attractions and spending a weekend with their host families.

BVC students certainly have the travel bug – this week it’s the turn of over 50 year 8 students to spend a week in Normandy. The Spanish exchange will take place in October, with a Classics trip to Italy also planned for next year.
