Happens once per year only! A whole weekend at Portsea Camp in total immersion with a young and dynamic team of qualified French teachers. Excellent for VCE Units 3&4 students who would like to get more familiar with the final examination and know what to expect on D-day while having fun at the beach! Please note that the weekend is aimed mainly at students studying VCE Units 3&4, but also open to VCE Units 1&2 students willing to challenge themselves.

Saturday will be dedicated to 4 French workshops focusing on the discovery of the different components of the VCE final exam as well as grammar revision, and we will spend Sunday  morning working on a sample paper of the VCE French final exam.
