A Message from Sam Blyth after Visiting the France Program

Dear Parents and Families,

I had the pleasure of visiting the France program yesterday evening in Paris. They had just come from a visit to the magnificent Musee d’Orsay and we met at the Royal Cambronne for dinner, on a beautiful evening in the City of Light.

The group is clearly thriving and extremely well led and taught by Patti and her team.  A lot of French is bring spoken and learnt and staff are communicating almost entirely in French with the students.

France was the original summer program I ran 48 years ago and holds a special place in my heart. I spoke to the students about how I learnt to travel when I was their age on one of these programs and have being doing it ever since and still loving it.

Thank you for sending your children with us. They are off to a great start, are enthusiastic and bright and are showing a lot of academic promise.

I hope you are having a great summer.

Best wishes,

Sam Blyth
