Primary 5-7 pupils at Leswalt Primary have recently been learning all about France.\u00a0 As part of their learning experiences the pupils and their teacher Mrs Bathgate organised a French caf\u00e9 for their parents and friends of the school.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pupils created a menu which included croissants, pain au chocolat, tarte au citreon and des gateux.\u00a0 The caf\u00e9 was also providing Orangina and chocolat chaud to drink.\u00a0 Pupils were encouraged to take orders from their customers by speaking French.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Visitors paid a donation to sample the French cuisine on offer.\u00a0 The enterprising pupils had also created a recipe book of favourite recipes to sell.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span>The caf\u00e9 was well supported by the local community of Leswalt and the pupils were delighted when final calculations showed they had taken \u00a3200.58 in the one hour it was in operation.\u00a0 All profits from this event have gone to Macmillan Cancer research as part of the World\u2019s biggest coffee morning event.<\/span><\/div>\n
