And this is how we celebrate my first year of offering French classes to Adults and Homeschoolers. Miam !! Yum!!

I still have one more week of French for Preschoolers - see you at the Mosgiel Library Tuesday 9.45am, all welcome (there will be an update on this class in the new year - watch this space), as well as my private in-home classes, and then "C'est les vacances !!"

I'll be updating over the next few days, the dates and times for next year's classes. Have you been dreaming of learning French? Or you might have someone in your life who'd love to receive a term of French Genie classes for Christmas. Keep your eyes peeled, and share share share ❤️

And maybe I'll get better at photography in the meantime 🤣 Love you all, bisous !

You must go and see this! Because I can't! And how I wish I could. FRENCH CHRISTMAS SONGS at Knox church, sung by amazing singers, accompanied by the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra. It honestly sounds like heaven. Magical. Tell me all about it afterwards, s'il vous plaît ❤️🙏

You are most welcome with or without snowflakes/ flocons de neige ❤️❄️
