Août 2019
Cher/e Community Member,
After three years spent at the Alliance Française d’Adélaïde, it is time for me to go back to France. Thank you to all of you
- students, staff members, committee members, partners and friends - for your continued trust and support. The Alliance Française
d’Adélaïde, Adelaide and South Australia all have a very special place in my
heart.
I am also very happy to announce that Ms. Raphaëlle Delaunay will be the new director of the Alliance Française d’Adélaïde, starting in
September. I wish her every happiness and success in her endeavours.
Laurent Pointud
Director of the Alliance Française d'Adélaïde
