Last nights presentations from the market 3 euro challenge! Very tough decision but the lavender for coach driver Dave took the top spot 👌🏻🇫🇷

Happy birthday Theo!!! 🥳🎂

Au revoir la Normandie! We have started the (very long!) journey back to Lancaster, as always, we will keep you posted on arrival times using X and broadcasts 🕣🚌🚆

Another action packed day. British war cemetery, Bayeux market, Bayeux Tapestry, Gun batterie, Arromanches and the 360 cinema!

British war cemetery this morning laying a wreath provided by the British Legion 🇫🇷🇬🇧

Busy day: Caramel factory, Omaha beach, bowling and supermarket visit 🇫🇷

A moment for the beautiful Château du Baffy 🏰🇫🇷🛌

A lovely sunny afternoon exploring Honfleur 🇫🇷 we’ve now arrived at the château, settled into our woodland pods and getting ready for our first evening meal 🥘

Normandy trip 2 have made it into France 🇫🇷

Normandy trip 1 is back on English soil! They have just set off from Watford gap services and will send an update when we are past Birmingham!

Saturday night was spent at the Château presenting the €3 challenge purchases and playing games outside! Sunday morning - waving the Château 'au revoir'. On our way home. We will update you on our progress throughout the day!

After spending the morning in Bayeux seeing the tapestry and the market, we had a picnic at the German gun battery and went to Arromanches-les-Bains for the 360 cinema and an ice cream stop! Back to the Château for the €3 presentations and for tea @ripleystthomas

Normandy trip 1 have safely arrived in France 🇫🇷 and will be exploring Honfleur as we speak 🙌🏻 more updates to follow! @ripleystthomas

We enjoyed talking to lots of enthusiastic pupils and parents about GCSE languages last week! Great to hear so many pupils realising the benefit of language learning 👏 @ripleystthomas

Mrs Berry presented certificates to the top 20 Y7 pupils who had taken part in the #RoutesintoLanguages #NationalSpellingBee Stage 1. This competition is invaluable in helping Y7 pupils keep on top of their vocabulary. Well done to all - good luck for Stage 2! @RipleyLanguages

We’re always in the lookout for those with an aptitude in languages, worth checking out our jobs 👍

Great to have @globalaffairslu in school today talking to year 9 about all things languages including career options, benefits of language learning and some great anecdotes of how a little language goes a long way! Merci ⭐️ @ripleystthomas

Y10 pupils have created penpal links with Sasserno International School, Nice. They wrote in French introducing themselves and were excited to get their letters back from France. It's a great chance for them to practise written French and learn about life in the South of France.

We were thrilled to hand over 73 advent calendars to Kat Michaels from @CancerCareLocal fundraising team today. A very caring pupil in 9Stuart had kickstarted her own collection so this was opened to other Y9 forms, putting our #service value into action! @RipleyLanguages

To avoid disappointment, make sure you order your tickets now for our beautiful Carol Service to be held in Ripley Chapel on Tuesday 17 December 2024 at 7pm. The retiring collection will be donated to @TheOliveBranc16 Food Bank. trybooking.com/uk/events/land… @Ripley_Music
