Between 18 April and 6 May, 15 students from Newlands College in Wellington participated in a 3 week language and culture trip to France. The group was firstly based in Paris, before heading down to homestays and language classes in Nice.

Students performed an emotional waiata at the mayoral reception in the Le Quesnoy town hall after the ceremony itself.
