Our last day in Paris.
Today we set off early to beat the crowds to explore Montmartre. We admired the views over Paris and then went into the Iconic Sacre-Coeur before wandering the cobbled streets of Montmartre seeing the Wall of Love, the Place du Tertre (art area) & Rue de l’Abreuvoir (the most photographed street) before heading to Boris Boulangerie (as featured in Ladybug & Cat Noir) and the streets that John Wick was filmed on.
We then headed to the icon that is the Moulin Rouge before having shopping time at Galeries Lafayette Haussmann.
We dropped bags off back at the hotel before then heading to the Louvre to go inside and admire the Mona Lisa & Venus de Milo and other famous historic pieces.
We finished our day in a restaurant near the Louvre and sampled escargots!
Everyone finally collapsed into bed, ready for our long journey home.
We are looking forward to telling you all about our amazing three weeks in France when we arrive back into Perth at around 5,35pm on Friday.
Your children have been absolutely outstanding throughout the trip. Thank you so much for trusting us with them and we hope these memories stay with them forever.
The trip has been life-changing for Sophie and we can’t thank the staff enough for all their hard work in making this happen!
Wow! What a day! So many iconic landmarks in one day!!
Summer has been having the absolute BEST time and we are so incredibly thankful for this opportunity and for all the work behind the scenes to bring this trip to life!!
What an incredible trip! The places they have travelled, historic sights they have seen and connections they have made with their French host families has been wonderful to hear about. I am sure the students will have many fond memories of this French tour. We have appreciated all the hard work the staff (at both schools) has put into making this tour a possibility for our students.
So very grateful for this incredible opportunity to learn about a different culture, ways of living, history and building independence. Thanks for sharing the posts Heather and Howie, and for all the work that has gone into making this trip possible and successful.
What a fabulous end to an amazing trip! Huge thanks to everyone involved in the organisation of this trip and especially to the teachers who have travelled with the students. What wonderful life long memories they will travel home with ☺️
