The French Conversation group continues to meet every few weeks to practise speaking in French. We spend the first half of the session talking about various topics and personal news. After that we read a story in French, taking it in turns to read aloud a few sentences and then translate them. The story we are reading at the moment is called 'Les Carnets ‘. The characters in the story are getting their school reports and wondering how their parents will react. As usual there is a lot of humour involved but the text does pose some challenges, so we are learning new vocabulary all the time.
