Designed for Key Stage 2 French learners, this video looks at carnival time on the Caribbean island of Martinique.
Local girl Shekina presents this short video, which shows preparations for the school carnival at Ecole Plateau Didier.
Shekina describes the purpose of the parade, the elaborate costumes worn, how the kings and queens are elected and what the judges look for.
