This re-enactment of the occupation of Orford Castle sees French exchange students and their English correspondents (each using their foreign language) participating in a range of activities in and around the castle, culminating in a mock medieval trial in the Lower Hall.

The tasks include elements from other curriculum areas including Geography and History. Students enjoy the opportunity to bring the occupation to life and appreciate the practical application of the language they have been learning.

Language(s): English, French
