Denis (student grade 10) tells you all about the recent grade 10 trip to Paris. 'We had the honour of viewing the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Louvre throughout the course of our trip. The immense size and architectural brilliance of these monuments was one of the features that struck me the most and never failed to fascinate me. With its beautiful iron lattice structure, the Eiffel Tower's towering grandeur was a pleasure to witness.'







By Denis, student grade 10

With its beautiful iron lattice structure, the Eiffel Tower's towering grandeur was a pleasure to witness. At the western end of the famous Champs Ellysees, stood the Arc de Triomphe, as a memorial to the French army's might and toughness. I was stunned by the magnificent monument's past significance and structural beauty.


Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo

However, the most lasting impression I had was from our trip to the Louvre Museum. A luxurious wealth of cultural assets can be found at this legendary museum, which is situated inside the stunning palace. I came across well-known works of art while strolling through its precious hallways, such as the famous Mona Lisa and the beautiful Venus de Milo. The enormous collection at the Louvre allowed me to fully immerse myself in the rich variety of human talent. They covered a wide spectrum of artistic movements and historical periods like the Roman Empire for example. It was my most wanted place to visit before leaving.

Disneyland Paris

My visit to Disneyland in France was a fantastic experience that left me with priceless memories. The rollercoasters, among the many other attractions, stole the show right away and rose to the top of my list of priorities. A feeling of adrenaline unlike anything else was offered by the thrilling curves and twists of coasters like Tower of terror and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. I couldn't help but feel like a kid again as I made my way through Disneyland Paris' bizarre wonderland, met charming characters, and took in the magic of this legendary theme park. I will never forget the experience as one of absolute happiness and excitement.
