What is your favorite memory from your time at Ferrieres?

I have a vivid memory of the Fashion Show we organised along with 12 of my classmates during Bachelor 2nd year In the course of 2 months and a half, we managed to bring on board models and fashion designers and set up free of charge culinary partnerships to cater for the full-fledged banquet we created. It was the first fashion show ever organized in the castle. Despite the many hurdles, « Y, le Défilé » proved so successful. The evening was incredible, and the event was a pleasant surprise, for both us and for the school administration.

What are the most important things you remember from your teachers?

Our teachers are not merely instructors; they are professionals active in the hotel, restaurant, and luxury sectors, or in the fields linked or complementary to it. They were very supportive and always keen on sharing their knowledge and providing valuable input.

Yes. I sincerely think that one of the main assets of Ferrieres School is the rigor imparted to students. From the outset, we are confronted with hands-on learning and tough real-life situations, in all areas related to hospitality and culinary arts. We were also fortunate to be assigned the responsibility of planning events in the castle.
