On 4 July the year 7 girls took part in a day of cross curricular activities. In the morning, the groups prepared classic French recipes, which they had been learning to read in their recent French lessons. These included la ratatouille, le filet de saumon and le suprême de poulet, learning various French cuts for the vegetables. They practised French phrases to enable them to critique the finished dishes and learnt the skills to photograph food attractively, trying out their new-found skills on each other.
