An Afternoon Abroad... French Side

                      Une après-midi a l’étranger!

                            An afternoon abroad! 



The following club and organizations, Franco BU, Busco,SEAC,IAA,GCC,IBA,ISO and Hillel programs celebrated an afternoon abroad with the hard work and organization of the Phi Sigma Iota  The International Foreign language Honor Society.
During this 3hour event, students are invited to participate in cultural activities,games, trivia, karaoke, listen to popular songs with singers and group such as Magic System from Ivory Coast with songs like " cherie coco" among others.

 In the French program, students were welcome to try  savory mini french rolls, savory croissants, a variety of French chocolate truffles, and famous French cookies ( from Delacres)
They were asked to write a famous sentence or phrases they knew in french and share it with everyone by writting it up on the white board.
Each student was issued a passport  ( see photo below) and would receive a stamp, sticker or signature from each participating club to acknowledge they fully participated in "an afternoon abroad" events.
Students participation was  high and the Franco BU E-board noticed that the cultural food was going very quickly :)  always a good thing!

       Once again, an afternoon abroad was a great success! 
                    See you next year! a l’année prochaine!
                                           :)
