Le Club de Français (French Club)
What We Do
Le Club de Français is a great way to practice French in a relaxed and fun way, learn from the upper classmen, and discover the culture of France. Each meeting includes a taste of divine French food and drinks. A fun and exciting game or craft will then follow. Winners will receive adorable french prizes and/or raffle tickets. Don't forget to fill out your tickets and drop them into the raffle bucket because there will be a drawing at the last meeting with amazing french prizes that you will adore! Bonne chance!
Truffles - A Special Service we offer!
Craving chocolate? Need a birthday present or good-luck gift for a friend? The French Club now sells truffles for $3.00 a box or two for $5.00. Each box contains four candies. If you would like to purchase some, you can sign up at the next meeting or e-mail Justine.There will be a choice between three different flavors each month that you can find on this webpage or in the french room. Pick up an order form and turn it in with your money ahead of time. If you choose e-mail, have your money ready for when the candies arrive. The truffles will arrive in your homeroom within the next 7 days! Bon appetit! *If you want a special birthday box, let us know or
