Contraction T'as
T'as is the spoken contraction of tu as (you have). It’s used in informal spoken French before a past participle.
Past participle with avoir
Aimer uses the auxiliary avoir. The past participle aimé agrees with the direct object only when it precedes the verb, which it does not here, so it stays unchanged.
Definite article le
Le marks the noun pique-nique as a specific event (the school picnic).
Prepositional phrase de l'école
De l'école indicates possession or origin – the picnic belonging to the school.

✕Common Mistakes
T'es aimé le pique-nique de l'école ?
t'es means ‘you are’; the correct auxiliary for the past tense is ‘as’ (you have).
T'as aime le pique-nique de l'école ?
The verb must be in the past participle (aimé) to ask about a completed event.
Le pique-nique de l'école, t'as aimée ?
If you place the noun before the verb, the past participle would need agreement (aimé → aimée). Here the noun follows, so no agreement is needed.

Cultural Tip
School picnics (le pique‑nique de l'école) are a beloved tradition in France, often held in a park or schoolyard. Kids usually bring a simple lunch—baguette, cheese, fruit, and a dessert to share. Because the setting is informal, using T'as is perfectly natural among classmates, but you’d switch to As‑tu or Tu as in a more formal context (e.g., speaking to a teacher).
