Extract from ‘Trip to Rome’
by Laurent Year 7
I really liked the trip to Rome, we took a flight to Rome via Charles de Gaulle. In Rome we did a lot of singing, our conductor was Mr Libbey from ISL. Me, Hugo and Euan and 2 boys from Paris went to see the Pantheon and the spot where Julius Caesar was killed. We rehearsed for 2 days and then we had the concert. When everyone sang it sounded fascinating, I loved it there in Rome.
Thank you Mrs Radcliffe and Mr Heley.

In Rome we had loads of fun staying with our host families. Every day we sang from 9:00am o 3:30pm. During the singing time we had loads of fun and made loads of friends. The conductor really helped to make it all fun. It was a great experience to go to Rome and thank you Mrs Radcliffe and Mr Heley for taking us.

On the Saturday we practised until 15:00pm, then we went to a pizza restaurant, we ate lots so we were perfect for the concert. We went back to the school at 16:30 and we changed into our concert clothes: white shirt, black tie, black trousers, black socks and black shoes. At 17:30pm we went to the church and did a run through of all the songs for the concert. At 19:00pm, we went to have some fun (table tennis) in the basement of the church. At 19:30 we started singing in front of around 150-200 people. At 20:30, the concert ended and we all went home for our last evening in Rome.
