A pre-school near Westbury have introduced French lessons into its curriculum this term.

Bratton Pre-School, which meets at the Church Institute Hall, has enlisted the help of French teacher Madame Blythe.

During their first week learning French, children celebrated French culture by painting the national flag and sampling croissants, pain au chocolat and cheeses.

The children were then introduced to key French phrases through the use of music, puppets and telephones.
