Julie Ann am in agony but keep telling myself only a few more weeks. They have to do a brochure about the school written in French so they are all sentences she can put in She doesn't bring many trip letters home cos she says we cant afford them lol

Hi, I would agree with Annie's translation except for the 'Salon de classes' I would put 'salles de classes'. and 'a allemgane' I would put 'en Allemagne' Wendy
