The following sections are accepting entries:

Do you hear the people sing?

Were you born to be on the stage? Do you love the language of Victor Hugo? If you’d like to put your French skills to the test, the French Eisteddfod is accepting entries from juniors and adults to recite, sing and perform. Classes will be held on the 27th - 28th March at Beau Séjour.
The full syllabus is available HERE.
Entries can be emailed to Louise Le Pelley - courtilfleuri@gmail.com

French has a special bond with the Guernsey Eisteddfod due to the island’s strong connection to the Bailiwick’s Anglo-Norman heritage. The French Eisteddfod is a unique forum in which everyone, young and old, can participate in a journey of discovery through prose, poetry and music. Allons-y! In the words of Celine Dion, let’s go for it!
