Bonjour everyone

Last Wednesday morning, a group of intrepid Francophiles met in the Junior School Library for the first French Games Club session of the year. Dressed in their colourful swimming carnival shirts, they were a bright collection of eager students. For our first activity, we played the well-loved card game "Dixit" which involves the boys choosing french colour themes and guessing which card belongs to whom. Bleu is a popular theme among the boys, but the cards provide a whole collection of colour possibilities for the game. Our location in the library meant we were able to collect some extra early morning students - not actually enrolled in the club - to join us for the fun. Today's winner was Madame Vinton followed closely by Ronan with Guy coming in third. Until the next challenge, here's to plenty more early-morning jeux to keep us busy and laughing while using our French.

Au revoir!
