Sports and Francophonie Culture
To celebrate the 2024 Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games, the
Alliance Française d'Adelaide organised a fun sports day event for French students in year 7, 8 and 9, on in May 2024.
Held at the Unley Oval and Community Hub, 140 students from four Adelaide Schools - Pembroke School, Glenunga
International High School, St Ignatius College and Scotch College - were divided into 10 teams, each representing a francophone
country.
Fuelling up with traditional french snacks of madeleine au beurre and sirop grenadine (berry cordial), the students played four traditional French games like la Balle aux prisonniers (dodgeball), le Béret, la Thèque and le Tir à la corde (tug of war). They also learned the Olympics dance and test their knowledge of the Francophonie with a fun quiz.
