The British council's reviewer named our application 'exceptional'. 

At St Helen's we learned about what school is like in France and then created links with the College Moulin Blanc in northern France. Pupils were then able to exchange letters in both French and English. 

We also promoted language-learning by playing host to two other schools and inviting in the Onatti theatre show. Our pupils very much enjoyed watching the French play.

In geography, pupils have looked into the nurturing nature topic in the Savannah phase, which linked to the sustainable world topic in Ocean phase.

We are always looking for opportunities to work with other schools abroad, including exciting collaborative projects, inclusion activities and sharing of good practice.  Please email international@sthelensprimary.net if you are interested in working with us.  We look forward to hearing from you!
