The exchange between the Ensemble Scolaire Saint François de Sales in Alençon and Bishop Challoner Catholic Secondary School in Basingstoke began in 1978. For more than thirty years our students and staff have travelled to France to stay for a few days with a French family, discovering more about French culture and food and above all taking the opportunity to use what they have learnt during their French lessons in school. The exchange is very popular and students have always been happy to meet up with their French penpals every year. Students see the French exchange as an exciting opportunity which offers them international friendship and good fun.
We have installed the Tucasi internet payment system which allows parents to make payments to school via the internet. Initially this method of payment will apply to day trips only but we anticipate extending it to include Building Fund and other payments in due course. A brief user guide is available. If you have any queries, please contact the school at finance@bishopchalloner.hants.sch.uk
I hope you find this website useful and interesting. Please contact the school if you require any further help or information.
