Shared Histories : les travaux de nos élèves

Ces travaux prennent la forme de journaux d'époque ou de vidéos. Ils se font "in English of course". Nous les envoyons régulièrement à Long Bay College. Les vidéos ont eu beaucoup de succès : les élèves d'Auckland ont apprécié d'écouter l'accent "frenchie" de nos élèves !
Nous envisageons, avec ces travaux...

Les premiers pas de notre projet : Shared Destinies
