Our school has been having an exchange programme with Lycée St. Ambroise in Chambery, France since 2007. The fifth exchange programme with Lycée St. Ambroise, Chambery, is currently underway.
30 French students accompanied by 3 teachers: Mr Pierre Guillot, Ms Muriel Bouvier and Ms Sonia Bigue visited our school from 15 October 2019 to 23 October 2019.
The French students stayed with their Indian counterparts: students of Classes IX and X. The students attended classes on some days and several visits were also organised for them. They visited Iskcon Temple, Lotus Temple, Akshardham, Lodhi Garden, The Alliance Française de Delhi, Parliament, Gandhi Smriti and Bangla Sahib Gurudwara. The French students were eager to explore the city and also to discover the Indian culture and customs.
On the last day, the visiting French students put up a cultural programme.
The exchange was a learning experience for students of both countries and it gave our students an excellent opportunity to interact with native French speakers and to get a keen insight into the French culture. Deep bonds of friendship were formed between the Indian and French students. Students of both the countries will treasure the memories of this exchange for a long time. Our students will be visiting Chambery, France next year.
