‘On y va !’ - Year 8’s French Play in a Day
Published 05/07/22Year 8’s French Play in a Day is always a lovely high point. The script highlights topics pupils have been studying in French, and they rehearse their scenes through the day (usually with a lot of accompanying laughter!), before performing the finished ‘pièce de théâtre’ together. The cast performed brilliantly, and there was a warm reception for the various pupils who took on the role of Bruno, the adorable family ‘chien’. This was a specially poignant performance this year, since it was the last for Mrs Gibson, our wonderful Head of Modern Foreign Languages and French.
With the Summer holidays approaching, Mrs Montiel, Head of Spanish, offers the following scene, which may ring a bell with anyone trying to make holiday plans that will please everyone...
Family in kitchen chatting around table
Papa : Cet été nous allons rester en France. Qu’est-ce qu’on va faire ?
Maman : Moi, je voudrais aller à Paris. Les boutiques sont superbes et on peut visiter les monuments.
Antoine : Mais non ! C’est ennuyeux ! Moi, je voudrais aller à la plage. J’aime jouer au volley sur la plage.
Cécile : Moi, je préfère aller à la campagne parce que j’aime faire des balades à vélo et on peut faire du camping.
Isabelle : Le camping, tu plaisantes ! Je déteste le camping. Il fait froid et il pleut ! Je voudrais aller au parc Disneyland – c’est chouette !
Papa : Oh là là - quelle décision ! Moi, je voudrais aller au bord de la mer. A La Rochelle il y a une belle plage, des magasins, des cafés et il fait beau. On peut rester dans une caravane.
Maman : Et toi, Bruno ? (talking to the dog)
Bruno : Ouaf ! Bonne idée ! J’adore faire des promenades sur la plage.
Antoine : Super !
Cécile : On y va !
