Do you want a bit (or a lot of) fun this Sunday whilst practising your French?
I am going to this event again (I wouldn't miss it for anything!). All levels of French, ages and types of games catered for. Will I see you there? At the amazing Kittiwake Trust Multilingual Library. Free event, donations to the library gratefully received.
