Bellevue

Bellevue is the name of our junior and senior high school. It is in the south west of France, in a region called “Midi Pyrénées”. It is located in a town called Albi, through which flows the river Tarn.

With 34 acres of green spaces around and 1540 pupils in, it is one of the biggest schools in the city. The students are between ten and twenty years old. 45 pupils from the “SEGPA”, who are between 14 and 15 years old are going to take part in the project called : « Today, Blue Planet, but tomorrow ? »

The “SEGPA” is a specialized department within the French educational system that deals with underachieving students.  Their curriculum includes workshops which allow them to practice: building, catering, plant growing and landscape gardening.
