What a fantastic experience we had at the Broadcroft Hotel 🇫🇷🇪🇸 S3 & Senior Phase pupils got to try some French delicacies and hear about chef Pascal’s ‘voyage’ and the importance languages have been for him and his work in hospitality 🥰 Merci beaucoup!

P7 had a fantastic time at the Madrid Marathon today. Massive thank you to the S6 ambassadors, S1 helpers and the staff who made today possible. We loved exploring various Spanish activities and getting to know the JYHS building. @JYHSModLangs
