The students of the Star Academy still can’t believe it. Tuesday, November 5, Marine, Ulysse, Marguerite, Ebony, Emma and all the other academicians received a visit from a guest like no other: Brigitte Macron. The First Lady came to the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys to raise awareness among students about the fight against school bullying, on the occasion of the national day for the fight against this scourge, which will take place this Thursday. Emmanuel Macron’s wife was accompanied by Justine Atlan, the director of line 3018, dedicated to young victims of harassment and digital violence.
Students impressed by Brigitte Macron
The students of the Star Academy knew that they were going to receive a special guest this Tuesday, November 5 but had not imagined for a single second that it would be Brigitte Macron. Everyone was gathered at the theater when the First Lady entered the door of the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys. “I saw someone! It’s Madame Macron. Ok, it’s Madame Macron,” shouted Franck, who couldn’t believe it. Marguerite, for her part, had a flea in her ear: “I knew it!”, she said.
“Hello, very happy to meet you. Very, very happy,” the wife of the President of the Republic told them. “We too,” replied the academicians, impressed. Brigitte Macron then got to the heart of the matter by addressing the fight against bullying at school. “For me, it was the first subject that arrived on my desk. When Emmanuel became president, perhaps because I am a teacher, I had a lot of letters from students saying: ‘Go on this subject, talk about it’, that’s how it all started,” she told the academics.
Some students of the new class of the Star Academy were victims of school bullying. Maureen spoke about this on Monday during her evaluation. Marine also explained that she was the target of mockery at school. Last year, Axel and Candice performed Maëlle’s song, The Mass Effectwhich mentions school bullying.
Images of Brigitte Macron at the Château de Dammarie-les-Lys will be broadcast this Wednesday evening during the daily.
