The winners of our 2016 Concours Annuel are off to France! Corrie Cross, Shane Krueger, Giovanni Hollis, and Yusef Bashara are going to study French for three weeks and live with host families in Cannes. The best way to learn French is to immerse yourself completely in it, and we hope the students will feel more confident and comfortable when speaking French when they return. After Cannes they will visit Paris and explore all the great monuments and landmarks. We look forward to hearing all about their trip! Our four students featured in Bernews on July 5th. Read the Bernews article "Students leave for immersion visit to France" Last night, four young students sponsored by l’Alliance Française des Bermudes were introduced to the French Community at the Alliance Annual Dinner, which theme was a celebration of the close friendship between France and Bermuda.
Giovanni Hollis and Corrie Cross from Warwick Academy, Shane Krueger from Saltus and Yusef Bushara from Somersfield are the happy winners of the Alliance's sponsorships to visit and study in Cannes, France, for three weeks this summer. They will also have the opportunity to spend three days in Paris to complete their "French experience". They are very excited about the trip and anxious to meet their host families! Congratulations to Giovanni, Corrie, Shane and Yusef and many thanks to all applicants. |
