French Performance for Years 5 & 6
Year 5 and 6 pupils from Winchester House and Swanbourne House enjoyed a special performance of “Le Chateau” by Onatti Theatre Productions. This performance offered pupils the chance to hear French outside of the classroom and to encounter various sentence structures through visual storytelling.



The storyline centred on a young English knight sent by King Henry VIII in 1540 to seek out a suitable bride in France. However, he encounters obstacles including his inadequate grasp of French, inability to paint, and interference from the lady’s protective maid.
Winchester House is a co-educational day and boarding independent prep school in Northamptonshire, near the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire borders, for children from nursery (age 3) to year 8 (age 13).
