Alright gang, Yesterday you were working on nationalities and countries. Today you are to create a poster/advertisement (in French) to promote a country as a holiday destination. Example texts: La France! C'est magnifique! Il y a les plages! Il y a les magasins! Faire du ski! Faire du bowling! C'est fantastique! All of these phrases have been covered, feel free to add your own - DO NOT USE GOOGLE TRANSLATE. Save your posters for me to look at on Wednesday. Mr Guinane

Those of you who know Jonny, know that he is a total legend, and this just confirms it. Jonny had the opportunity to play a movement of a concerto with St Albans Symphony Orchestra (local adult orchestra) and he chose the final movement of Weber's Bassoon concerto.  Click here to have a listen. You won't regret it - it's fantastic. Well done, Jonny!
