For Year 10 (NESA) & Year 12 (IB Ab Initio)
This mini-Immersion workshop is specifically designed to cater to an “intermediate” high-school level, including Year 10 NESA and Year 12 IB Ab Initio students. The workshop aims to develop all skills across themes such as identity, the environment, leisure, and work. Students will be exposed to texts, film & TV, listening extracts which will broaden their understanding of French culture and identity. We will work on the production of informative and imaginative texts, effective verbal communication and interactive skills.
Our mini immersion workshop offers:
- 3 full days of French learning
- An “all skills” approach, developing reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar
- A range of learning activities including games, role plays, quizzes, picture stimulus and more
- French cultural activities and appreciation such as cooking, film, music, art, restaurant outings
This 3-day immersion experience is run by experienced and qualified French teachers who have an in-depth knowledge of the requirements for high-school students. All activities are targeted to students in Year 10 (NESA) or Year 12 (IB Ab Initio), and have specific learning outcomes to maximise success back at school.
