This new French group is hoping to improve their spoken French, initially by conversation and perhaps later by some form of instruction.
We meet once a fortnight on Mondays at 11am at the Ivanhoe Club, Wilfred Place in Ashby. There are also fortnightly conversation sessions at one of the member's houses on a Tuesday evening for those who are more fluent.

The French group continue to meet fortnightly on Monday morning at 11am at the Ivanhoe Club in Ashby.
More recently we have been starting the sessions with each member giving a résumé in French of their activities during the past week or so. Usually there will then be a topic to talk about.
Last time we all had a go at describing our favourite hobby or hobbies and before that we paired up to have role play scenarios - eg a tourist asking a passer by for directions or a tourist trying to hire a car at a French airport or a tourist booking into a hotel room. These sessions usually involve some pre meeting preparation from all members in the group.
New members are always welcome but please contact Tony Smith, group leader, on french@ashbyu3a.co.uk in advance please.
