Bonjour et bienvenue!
This is our French blog for all our Year 8 students who are using the red text book and who are in sets 1 or sets 2.


This term we will work towards getting a level 5 in French by using the past tense.
We will also cover the following topics:

• talking about past events
• talking about what we do in our free time
• talking about tv programmes

Please make sure that you always revise at home the vocabulary and the verb forms which we learn in class. Only then will you ensure that you make good progress.


As you are in the top groups this year, you will be required to do regular revision at home.


Bon courage !
Au revoir,


Mme Hickman, Mme Roche-Ali, Mme Whiffen, Mme Douet et Mme Raekow
