Newcastle

French Conversation

French language and culture for fun! We are an informal lively group who meet weekly to enjoy chatting in French over tea or coffee. We are mostly improvers/intermediate level so our group caters for all abilities above beginner. Like most u3a groups, we are self-programming. We are not a class and we do not teach.

Our group will enable those who have some ability to speak French to practise their language skills within a friendly and supportive environment. New members typically say they have not used their French since long ago school days - but it soon comes flooding back and their confidence develops quickly. We chat about a wide range of topics - la vie, l'univers et tout.

We usually meet in the Community Room of the Newcastle Building Society, Northumberland Street, Newcastle (near the Haymarket Metro Station), a lift to the 2nd floor is available. Free tea/coffee /water is available (self-service). We sometimes meet at a cafe or at members' homes. All information for the group is shared via WhatsApp.

We meet in person every Monday, 1400-1500 pm (except bank holidays).

Our Group, as with all u3a groups, is for u3a members or prospective members (who are given the opportunity to have one taster session of this group before considering joining). If intending to visit us for the first time please confirm with our Group Leader.
