My name is Michael. I am Irish. I am 15 years old. I have lived in France for two years and have attended this school for two years.I like the school because the teachers are very understanding and very patient with foreign students, especially the headmaster,being Tri-lingual can give help whenever needed. The school has numerous non-curricular activities, for example U.N.S.S; a sporting activity every wednesday afternoon.I am very happy to have come here, for now I am bi-lingual. In the future I would like to become a psychologist but I am still not sure if I am going to attend university in Ireland or France, being bi-lingual the choices are endless ! But wherever I go and whatever I do I will never forget my two years in Sacré-Coeur.

My name is Niki I'm 15 and I'm english. I have lived in France for nealy five years and I have been at this school for four years. The College du Sacre Coeur is a good school to go to if your not french, because all the teachers help you to learn the language and introduce you to the french way of learning.When I first came to France I knew little french so to begin with it was hard but as time went on it got easier. I'm now bi-lingual among other pupils. I think I made the right choice in coming to this school. The teachers in this school have given me the encouragment nessecary to make it through the brevet des college. I don't know what the future holds for me in the long run at the moment but I do know that I will be attending lycee next year. Coming to France has been a life changing experience and one never to forget.

I have been in France, at College de Sacre Coeur, for 3 years, I'm now returning to England after the Brevet to do my A'Levels. This school has taught me French, a skill I'm sure will be useful in later life. When I first arrived here the cultural differences, and the fact I couldn't understand the teachers, was a huge shock. At first I thought I was wasting my time, but I soon realised that simply listening to the language all day was slowly helping me to understand it. The teachers were really helpful, they spoke only French except when I hadn't a clue, when they used English. The school has many extra-curricular activities (U.R.S.S), and numerous facilities including a lab, computer suite and design technology room. For two years now I have organised an English play, with full support from the headmaster, for all the English to be together on stage. College Sacre Coeur has given me a unique experience for the last three years and I am very thankful.
