Enrich your child’s life and open their mind: enrol them in a French class!
By exposing your children to a foreign language early in their life, you will help them develop lifelong learning abilities:
not only will they gain confidence by learning to communicate in another language, but they will be able to acquire other languages more
easily, adapt to new situations and think creatively. The Alliance Française d’Adélaïde provides a natural progression
through the levels, meaning that children can begin classes at any age!
The Alliance is accredited by the Ethnic Schools Board of South Australia and by the SACE Board of
South Australia; it is the official examination centre for the DELF examinations (run by the French Ministry of Education) in Adelaide.
