Our programme has been specially designed to give children the opportunity to learn and practise French through playful, hands-on activities, while discovering new themes, exploring Auckland and making wonderful memories with friends.

🌷 Week 1 – A Celebration of Spring

As spring arrives, we will celebrate the return of colour, flowers and nature! 🌸🌿

Children will explore the beautiful Auckland Botanic Gardens through a range of artistic and creative activities inspired by the colours, shapes and beauty of spring.

From nature-inspired art to outdoor games and playful French activities, this week will be all about creativity, discovery and celebrating the arrival of a new season.

🏴‍☠️ Week 2 – Pirate Adventure

Ahoy, young adventurers! ⚓️

The first week will take children on an exciting pirate adventure! They will become a crew of brave explorers, solve mysteries, complete challenges and embark on an exceptional treasure hunt at Auckland Domain.

And watch out… the Alliance Française might even be sabotaged by our mischievous pirate crew! 🏴‍☠️

Throughout the week, children will enjoy a variety of pirate-themed games, creative activities, challenges and French-language adventures.

🇫🇷 French Through Play

Every morning, children will take part in fun and interactive French activities, allowing them to discover and practise the language naturally through games, songs, stories, challenges and creative activities.

No previous French experience is required — just curiosity, enthusiasm and a sense of adventure! 😊

The Alliance Française reserves the right to cancel a group-course with fewer than 5 enrolments.

AFA shall determine the class placement and academic progression of each learner, at its sole discretion. The availability of places in any advertised course is subject to enrolment, on a first come first served basis.

Private courses are organized by AFA taking into account the student's learning objectives and requests in terms of pace, volume of hours, and schedule ; subject to the availability of a teacher and after validation by the Head of Study.

In the case of private/semi-private lessons or distance learning lessons, postponement and rescheduling may be possible in limited circumstances. To be approved, all learners in the group must agree and AFA (teacher and coordinator) must be notified by email not less than 48 hours before the scheduled lesson time, requesting postponement. If these conditions are fulfilled, AFA will do its best to reschedule the lesson. However, learners should note that rescheduling may not be possible (due to room constraints and/or teacher availability) and AfA shall be under no obligation to do so. In the above case, failure to notify within 48-hours of the scheduled lesson will result in the lesson being counted as billable and will not be replaced, irrespective of whether learners attend or not. Failure to attend or obtain a rescheduling will result in forfeiture of course fees. In case the course was provided to the present learners, the course won’t be caught up for the absent ones unless additional courses are bought for that purpose. For scheduled private or semi-private classes, lesson time will not be extended beyond the pre-arranged finish time due to lateness. 3.
