Year 10 French

French is an official language in 32 countries across the world and is currently ranked 6th among the world's languages.  Forbes data suggests it will continue to grow and it will be spoken by 750 million speakers by 2050.  Because of Brexit, French is increasingly the language of choice in the European Union.  At Craighead, we believe that learning a language is a tangible way to love your neighbour.

The Year 10 French course aims to develop the communication skills gained in Year 9 and to provide students with the necessary skills and knowledge to meet some of the requirements of the NZ Curriculum, Levels 3 and 4.
