Join our next Open Day
Last month, our department organised several special activities for our FLE students to practise their language skills in different contexts. In Lausanne, our FLE learners participated in a chocolate-making workshop, giving them a real taste of Swiss culture while speaking French. Afterwards, our students explored the literary side of French at the Payot bookshop, where they became journalists for a day and interviewed staff members as part of a class project.
In a separate activity, our FLE students used their French to solve an outdoor treasure hunt around our school. This fun challenge gave our students a chance to become more confident with tasks like asking for information and giving directions in French.
More French language immersion outings for our students are on the horizon, including a visit to the archaeology museum L’ArchéoLab – a great opportunity to practise using the past tense, while learning about the history of our region – as well as visits to museums in Geneva, such as the Red Cross and the United Nations.
These immersive experiences form a key part of our one-year FLE programme, which welcomes students with no prior French knowledge. By testing their language skills in the real world, our students build confidence in French while learning more about the francophone culture around them. Our FLE approach prepares students for success in their future French studies – and with a whole new global perspective!
Boarding at Collège Champittet offers the opportunity to enjoy exceptional adventures not only in Switzerland, but also around the globe! Recently, a group of our boarding students travelled to Oman to spend an unforgettable two weeks immersed in culture and nature.
