FSM : Kaolin

Bonjour!
Here is the last French song of the year but don't worry I'll keep posting next year

Here is "Partons vite", and if the "lalala" part is not stuck in your head then I don't understand!

German trip- Coming home

Both coaches made in onto our ferry in the nick of time due to the impeccable behaviour of the children going through border control. As we've come accustomed to, Tomlinscote students are the best behaved on the boat.
Provided we don't run into too much traffic we should get home on time.

Germany
Germany was amazing! We had so much fun and the fact that we were in a different country made it ten times better. My favourite part was the food that I tried because I found new foods that I will now eat at home!
By Isabella Kelly

In Germany we did lots of things and had lots of fun!the day I enjoyed the most was phantasia land. There were lots of things to do but not that much time to do it in. 
By Megan Treece

I thought getting up for the German trip would be hard and I would sleep on the coach, but it turned out I didn't as I was too excited. I enjoyed the independence we were given and the meals were good. My favourite part of the week was phantasia land as I'm a rollar coaster lover and the rides were similar to thorpe park.
By Megan Alcorn


This trip has been amazing for the whole time. There has been some incredible things the see and do. One of the best experiences was the castle because we learnt loads of new infomation about the history of Germany. But we have to thank the teachers and staff who helped us have these amazing opportunities and have some brilliant amounts of fun. We would also like to thank the people who worked at the Hotel Anker. One of the other things we did was go to Phantasialand where despite lots of us students had fears of rides and rollercoasters, many of us really tried putting an effort in to make the day more enjoyable for the others. Once again we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who made everyone have probably the most fun so far at Tomlinscote.

Germany last day

After a lovely meal of Frikadellen, Bratkartoffeln und Erbsen last night (meatballs, panfried potatoes and peas) we had a disco during which some people showed off their special dance skills. 


Now we're on our way back home: soon we had to say goodbye to the pretty vinyards along the river Mosel and have a day of travelling on the Autobahn. But we have a plentiful supply of DVDs and music, and I'm sure we'll be dancing and singing along to our new favourite German song a few more times! 

Here are some more comments about the trip:

The week has been amazing! Ich liebe Deutschland jetzt! (Now I love Germany) It has been a great experience and I've learnt more about the German lifestyle. Ich finde meine deutsch Freunde toll! My German pen pal was very nice and friendly, we also exchanged contact details and took many photos together. The school was very fun as they were very welcoming and even made a spread of waffles for us-which were very delicious. Also, shopping in the town was great as we got to use our German vocabularly with the people in the towns. I think that when I go to England I'll still be saying- ich möchte eine kleine Pommes bitte! PhantasiaLand was also sehr lustig. One thing I liked most about this trip was that we were given a lot of responsibilities and freedom to go round in groups but were also safe every second of the trip. I  would love to come back and do the German exchange in year 9!
Beau McDonald

This week was super und unsere deutschen Freunde waren fantastisch! Ich finde es toll und interessant!

Lena H,  Hattie P & Caitlin F 😘


It's been a fantastic week: the children have been a pleasure to be with: enthusiastic, well-behaved, punctual and  easy-going. They had a great time all round! 
If you enjoyed these updates on the blog (which have been quite a challenge due to some technological troubles) do leave a comment!
More photos will be uploaded soon on the shared area on the school network...

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag, Isabelle!

Today it is Isabelle's birthday! If you can't spend your birthday with your family, the next best thing is probably to go to a theme park with lots of friends, followed by a nice meal with cake and 120 children singing for you and finished with a disco!
Herzlichen Glückwunsch!
