  1. I also learnt French the same way as gubernaculum.....I may have been the 'other' kid they did not get on with aside from the fact that the other kid I was with appeared alot younger than me. The teacher at Le Nid Soleil was awful at teaching English from a Larousse Dictionary...far worse than our school text book French and if you were caught gum chewing in class they would demand you take it out and they would put it in your hair. The copier was a hand operated one on which worksheets would be printed. You would do weaving for art. The childrens home did not speak English to you even if they could. I felt isolated and lonely. They used their language and your lack of understanding it as a way to bully you. The bedrooms were 70s dorm throwbacks and the food at times was inedible. This place frightened me...there was another child leaving called Donna Aseltine who looked very relieved to be going...
