Le Français

Bonjour and welcome to Term 3!

Work has commenced this term to prepare all BPPS students to learn a French poem.

They will be encouraged to memorize it and present it to the rest of their class.

Students will be judged on the following criteria:

accuracy, pronunciation, confidence, loudness and expression. 

The winners from each class will compete against each other in the finals which will hopefully occur in planning week , most likely week 9.

If the winners are absent on the day , second or third place getters will be given the opportunity to represent their class on the day.

Teachers will be the adjudicators for this final round to determine each Level winner.

Prizes and certificates will be awarded to all place getters some time in Term 4.

The poems have been posted on Seesaw with a recording so that students and parents can practise and revise at home.

 FRENCH DAY and INCURSION  (Week 4)

B.P.PS. will celebrate the French National Day, Le quatorze Juillet, (Bastille Day), with an incursion by:

Cultural Infusion , Chris Morant  on Tuesday , August 1st.

Chris Morant will perform his “Bastille Day Exclusive” in the stadium to entertain and educate students on the French National Day (also known as Bastille Day), culture, history and music.  (Cost per student $7:00, from school levy)

Students are encouraged to wear French themed costumes or colours on the day.

There will be NO gold donation for the dress-up but there will be some CL@S awards for students with outstanding and creative costume ideas.

The canteen will be providing a Meal deal on the Day with further information to follow.

Looking forward to the day!
