About our group
This conversation soiree grew from Franki James’s group once she felt she could no longer lead it. She asked Howard and me to host the group at our home on behalf of the Hawke’s Bay French Association, which we did for a few months with Sharon Vial as our tutor. Our first meeting was in June 2016 so it has been running over eighteen months now. After the first few meetings we started to circulate around members’ homes which has been very pleasant. Our group is relatively unstructured and at the moment we do not feel the need for a formal tutor – although this may change! There is quite a wide range of competence in speaking French amongst members, so all-comers are welcome. We take informal turns at bringing wine and nibbles to share together.

People talk in French about what you would normally talk about in English.
