In France, schools from primary ecole through college and lycee use an electronic sonnerie to mark entry, breaks and the end of the day, played through corridors and playground speakers. Recordings of that familiar ringing have circulated online as ringtones and soundboard clips, often labelled for school, college and training centres. Students share it to recreate the feeling of a real school morning, to trick friends into thinking class is starting, or to add an authentic French classroom atmosphere to videos and edits.
