Primaries 5, 6 and 7 of Kilmodan Primary are delighted to announce that they have been awarded second prize in the Concours de la Francophonie, a national school competition run by the Institut français d’Ecosse, to encourage all young French learners and their teachers around Scotland to celebrate the International Day of la Francophonie.

The children scripted and then produced a short drama set in a busy French café.  They showcased their language and drama skills in a humorous sketch involving all pupils.

Class teacher at Kilmodan Primary, Linda Shaw said, “The competition offered a great opportunity for the children to demonstrate their creativity alongside their language skills.  They were thrilled to hear of their success and delighted to receive their books and certificate, presented by Gwen McCrossan, Principal Teacher for Languages.  Language learning remains central to our curriculum at Kilmodan Primary as we strive to ensure our pupils are engaged in challenging and enjoyable activities as they learn about the language and culture of France.”
