French language students to spend a week in Noumea

Twelve people who are studying French with the Alliance Française Central Coast will soon be spending a week in Nouméa to practice and improve their French language skills.

The Alliance Française Central Coast, a non-profit organisation dedicated to the promotion of French language and culture, is proud to be able to offer this exciting experience to their students.

In addition to scheduled classes, they also have regular French conversation meetings on the second Saturday of each month at Erina Leagues Club.

The Central Coast Alliance Française has organised this Noumea study tour to provide their students with an opportunity to totally immerse themselves in the language and culture of New Caledonia, while enjoying the delights of a semi-tropical island often called a piece of France in the South Pacific.

The Pacific Reasearch and Education Centre, a French Government organisation, will provide participants with 15 hours of French language study over five days. The remainder of the each day can be spent exploring Nouméa, shopping (of course), sight-seeing or relaxing on the beautiful beaches.

Many students have also taken the home stay option which will give them great opportunity to practice everyday French in real life settings.

Those who have chosen hotel accommodation will also be able to demonstrate their French skills while dining out and sampling the local night life.
