What is French?

Learning French introduces you not only to a new language but to a culture and society as well. Languages can bring people together and French is widely used for communicating in many parts of the world, including our Pacific neighbours New Caledonia and French Polynesia. People who know French can share in the rich traditions and history of France, a country that continues to fascinate the rest of the world, be it on the rugby field, in the arts or in its culinary reputation. The ability to speak French can help with travel, business and political interactions around the world.

What this course involves

In this course there is a focus on both written and spoken French. It builds on the basic reading, speaking, writing and listening skills acquired in Beginners French (FR000). Study topics reflect situations ākonga may encounter in daily life.
