18 French students from Hapnot Collegiate are leaving this weekend to tour France.  The Collegiate’s Corinne Mathews says it’s a chance for them to experience the life and culture of France.  She says first they’ll stop off at Vimy Ridge and see the tunnels, trenches and war memorials there and then they’ll head off to Paris where they’ll be spending the bulk of their time.  She says they’ll get to see the Eiffel Tower, the Notre Dame and the Louvre and then they travel through the south of France and stop off at a few places along the way and then end up at the principality of Morocco and will then fly back home from Nice.

The students will spend nine days in France.
