France Trip

France

As part of the Walford French Program, students in Years 10, 11 and 12 are invited to participate in a homestay and high school experience in France. With our external partner, Nacel Australia, the tour involves a three day Paris experience before students head individually to homestay families in a nominated region in France. During the 5 week homestay, students attend school locally and enjoy a French Christmas holiday with their homestay families. The French Tour is a memorable experience where life long friends are made, French cultural and language understanding improves and personal growth occurs.
