Thursday 14th March, the French Elective classes (yr.9 and Yr.11) attended the French Film Festival at the Palace Moore Park Cinema. Students watched the film Divertimento which was based on the true story of female musicians who took classical music to the suburbs of Paris. They were fortunate enough to hear from renowned conductor Zahia Ziouani, of whom the film is based, as she spoke to the students prior to the commencement of the film.

Afterwards, students enjoyed a typical French meal at the Little Snail French Restaurant in Pyrmont. Year 9 students particularly enjoyed using their recently acquired language to discuss their meals and interact with the waiters. The photos show well the students taking advantage of a wonderful language and cultural opportunity.
