My favourite activity is Les Escargots du Bocage, which is an option on our school French trips to the Opal Coast.
A trip to France may only be short, so there's not always time for everything, but Les Escargots du Bocage gives groups the chance to try something new, which I think is important when exploring a new culture.
During the visit, students are given a tour of the farm and have the opportunity to ask questions. They are then taken into a classroom where the snail farming process is explained using a slideshow.
To conclude the visit, students are given a glass of lemonade and have the chance to try snails for themselves!
The visit is great for encouraging students to try out their vocab, as well as a very typically French delicacy, and for a school trip that is, of course, one of the most important aspects.
Plus, the visit is suitable for both primary and secondary pupils!
