French
We are fortunate to have Monsieur Lantelme teaching French, as our chosen Modern Foreign Language, across all classes from Y1-Y6. He has prepared a wide range of resources for children of all ages, and you can also use the Language Angels software below that the school subscribes too. If you have any queries, please email: jerome.lantelme@middleton.nottingham.sch.uk
