French play: reviews by 5b

By Bora: "On the 12th June, 5B performed their French play. The play featured four fables presented to the King Louis XIV by La Fontaine (I was La Fontaine). Before the play, we were all nervous and were checking our costumes, props and make-up. When the audience of parents, Mr Douglas and Mr Underwood arrived, we were anxiously waiting backstage. When we were on stage, we forgot all our nerves and just enjoyed the moment. Except for a few technical difficulties, the whole thing went smoothly. The audience laughed at the funny bits, no-one forgot their lines and the acting was great. My parents and I enjoyed the play and I'm sure everyone else did as well."
By Jason:

By Joel and his mum: "I personally think the play went very well. The audience really enjoyed the play. You could easily tell by how much the audience laughed! You can also tell by how much I enjoyed it! Here is what my mum thought of the play seeing she was in the audience:
Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the play. A lot of thought, planning and hard work by the teachers as well as the children. The choice of French songs helped set the mood. However the parents who do not speak French would not have appreciated just how wonderful the whole thing was. Obviously, the model was not too bad at either!!" (Joel's mum was asked to come on stage and be part of a catwalk!! How brave! :)

Nicholas on Joel's mum performance: "Joel's mum did the catwalk amazingly - she must have practised before!"

Year 3: songs on fruit!

Well done to all the Year 5 boys!!!

Au revoir Mademoiselle, Bonjour Madame!

This is my last month as Mademoiselle Couture! :( In one month's time, I will be married, so will change my title at school from Mademoiselle (unmarried) to Madame (married)!

Here is a lovely card made by Mrs ER to celebrate the occasion, isn't it lovely?!

Did you know?
Did you know that Mademoiselle should not be said in France anymore? All ladies and girls should now be called Madame, so that people do not judge you whether you are married or not! After all, there is only one title for men, it's Monsieur! (Still, I enjoyed being Mademoiselle Couture!) What do you think about it?
