French is a major world language in the world. It is spoken as the first language in more than two dozen countries on five continents and it is an official language in 33 countries and many international organisations such as the United Nations and the European Union.
Australia and the French-speaking world have shared history since the first French explorers in Australia in the eighteenth century. These explorers were followed by prisoners, refugees and government officials who involved themselves in trade, commerce and agriculture. Today Australia and the French-speaking world share strong connections in trade, investment, research and education. France is a leading destination for Australian travelers and an increasing number of French young adults come to Australia on a Working Holiday Visa.
French has been taught in Australian schools and universities since the 1880s. The French program at Kororoit Creek has been developed as a transdisciplinary subject area within an IBO-PYP setting. All year levels will inquire to different aspects of the French culture and be exposed to the French language. The classroom teachers and the French teacher will work in a collegial manner to develop learning experiences to encourage Curiosity about worldwide languages and cultures.

Hi Alannah,
I was born in France, in a city called Tours, which is about 200km south of Paris. I grew up just outside Paris, and traveled a bit in Europe before moving to Australia 8 years ago. Heather is from Canada and has lived in Australia for many years as well.

What does Bon appetite mean?
Bon appétit means ‘enjoy your good meal’. We tend to say it at the start of dinner.
I love French and can you post more French videos they are so funny ha ha
Will do!
What’s the most popular food in France?
It all depends, Noah… we all have different tastes, but I think it would be fair to say that most people eat bread (baguette) and cheese most days. What is your favourite food?

Hi Olivia,
Just wondering if you can help me with the French homework for Grade One please .. My son, he is in H03 and lost his username and password to login to the French homework site, so he wasn’t able to do his homework so far .. Can you please let me know on how to retrieve the username and password please so he can start doing his homework, too? Thank you!!
Kind regards,
Felicia
Hi Felicia
I have just given the homeroom teachers their students’ usernames and passwords so they should be able to provide you with the information you need.
If not, please email kororoit.creek.ps@edumail.vic.gov.au with your son’s name and I will contact you to provide the details you need, or come and see me before or after school – my office is just by H13.
Thanks for following up on homework.
