Our popular French Assistant had a special treat in store for our students during one of her last lessons with them.

Alexandra Estebe treated her Year 9 students to her homemade crepes this week – just days before she is due to return home to France.

Our Spanish Assistant Claudia Tapia Villa will also return home to Spain at the end of this term.

CBA Director of Modern Foreign Languages Karen Turney said: “It was lovely for our students to sample some authentic French crepes made by Alex.

“The students used their French vocabulary to describe the tastes and they looked at recipes in French and watched French films of chefs making crepes. Lots of students said the crepes were ‘Miam, miam!’

“We will be very sad to see both Alex and Claudia return home.

“We hope that it is a case of ‘au revoir’ and ‘Hasta la vista’ rather than ‘goodbye’.”
