The 6+ club is a session specially designed to cater for children who are confident enough in English to begin exploring French at a deeper level. It was new for September 2016 and has been a great success! SEPTEMBER 2020: This club will be run online. The club normally takes place in Botley, but due
to the strange times we are currently living in, we have decided to
temporarily move this club to take place online via Zoom. We really hope
to back in a hall next term (January 2021). The structure of the club We use activities carefully chosen for school-aged children that really make learning fun. Throughout the term, your child will learn French through a variety of games, songs, rhymes, stories and occasionally even a liile drama! The club is active and engaging, but there is also an element of sitting at a table to work with a partner or in a small group to do a different kind of interactive activity. For example, to match French words to pictures, or to arrange the French days of the week in the correct order etc. Children also complete the occasional worksheet (maximum one per session) specifically designed for this 6+ club which can then be used to practise with you at home. Topics and vocabulary This club will explore a whole range of topics such as introducing ourselves and making friends, colours, pets, family, clothing, hobbies, numbers up to 30, months of the year, asking and saying our birthdays, describing the weather, food likes and dislikes - and of course ordering a snack/drink in a cafe! This 6+ club introduces children to the written word. For example, sessions will involve: ![]()
New Teacher for October 2019 This 6+ club is now going to be run by a lovely lady called Myriam.
Myriam is a native French speaker and mum of two young children so very
much in-tune with language learning and young children. Moreover,
Myriam has experience of tutoring small groups of
primary-aged children and she is very excited to expand on this by taking over the 6+ club. Myriam has lots of ideas for the new term and is committed to both liaising with me on the content of the sessions and to continuing to run them in the same fun way: packed full of games, songs and stories! Natually, Myriam has a recent DBS certificate. When can my child start? Children can start from Year 1 - in the term they are due to turn six. For example, if your child will be 6 between January and March, they can start the club this coming January. Similarly if your child is 6 between Where is the club? The club normally takes place at a hall in Botley, but this term it will be done online via Zoom. We really hope to back in a hall again next term (January 2021). When will the 6+ Club run? This club will continue to take place on a fortnightly basis and run for the typical 6 sessions this term. The new term will start on Saturday 26th September 2020 and will run every other Saturday continuously thereafter unp until and including Saturday 5th December i.e. 6 sessions. It's a 40 minute session that starts at 11.20 and finishes at 12.00. How much is the club? This cost per session is £7.50 for 1 child or £13 for two. Hpwever, we are currently offering a free trial session to new children! Then, if your child likes the club and you would like him/her to continue, we ask for an up-front payment for the remainder of the term. How is this club different to the Family Club? There are 3 main differences between the structure of the 6+ club and the Family Club.
