C'est fantastique! Year 6, 7 and 8 are off to Chateau de la Baudonniere, a French language immersion school centre in Normandy. A beautiful farm and estate which enables total immersion in the French language with skilled and qualified animateurs, activities include archery, abseiling, aeroball, orienteering, bread-making, outdoor photography and the outdoor assault course - parcours de santé! Visits are planned to Bayeux, the Musée de la Tapisserie and local markets. French food and culture 100%! On the last night there is a talent show and disco – both were events Sompting Abbotts pupils excelled at last time!

At Sompting Abbotts, we adopt a school-wide ethos that embodies our commitment to the environment. Its principles – 'Embrace Nature; Embrace Learning; Embrace Childhood' – are threaded through our teaching, influencing every child's journey from Pre-Prep to Upper Prep. Our 30-acre grounds and woodland in the South Downs National Park are at its roots.
