On Friday 27th February 6 students from our French partner school Lycée Amiral Ronarc’h in Brest, France were welcomed to the area by Councillor Collin McGrath, chairman of Down District Council, Councillor Michael Coogan, chairman of Cultural and Economic Development and Eric Tommasini, Towns Centre Manager in a reception in Downpatrick. The students were presented with certificates for completing their work experience in the local area and given a guided tour of the Saint Patrick Centre and St Patrick's grave. The French students had a fantastic time with us and didn't want to go home- always a good sign! Our students are still chatting via MSN and e-mail and some even have plans to meet up again over the summer. Amis pour la vie!
