SCHOOLchildren swapped winter hats for berets as they said "bonjour" to French culture.
Children at Clifton Infants had a taste of how their continental cousins enjoy the school day.
They dressed in the colours of the French flag and had a lunch of baguettes and croissants.
Headteacher, Jane Birkett, said: “The children were all doing different activities throughout the day.
“One class had to construct the Eiffel Tower using art straws and another was learning the words to a French song.
“Others learnt the names of animals and all of the children have been learning some of the basics of the French language.”
Mrs Birkett said: “The children have absolutely loved it. It has given them a real taste of France.”
