City Hall was bustlinglast Tuesday with over adozen exchange studentsfrom France.

The high school stu-dents, along with theirteachers, Corinne Mutterand Gaël Manescau, paid avisit to City Hall after takinga tour of ESPN.

For at least ten yearsnow, Bristol Central HighSchool and students of theLycée Jean Monnet haveshared an exchange.

Students from France cometo Bristol during even num-bered years, and BristolCentral students enrolled inFrench travel to France dur-ing odd numbered years,staying with their assignedhost families and attendingclasses with their corre-spondents.

During their visit to CityHall last week, the studentsmet Bristol Fire chief JayKolakoski, Acting PoliceChief Brian Gould andMayor Ken Cockayne, whoinformed them about the

role and responsibilities ofthe Mayor’s Office.Excitement filled theMayor’s Office, as 16 stu-dents took turns taking pic-tures of each other sitting atCockayne’s desk. They allproceeded down to theCouncil Chambers, whereBranding and MarketingManager Mark Walerysiakhanded out Bristol All Heartt-shirts and caps, whileCockayne handedManescau the key to thecity.
