Concours Oral National 2021
Every year, the Fédération of Alliances Françaises of New Zealand organises a National French Speaking Competition for secondary school pupils called the "Concours Oral".
National Prizes to be won this year:
  • One NZ high school class will win a prize of 30 ImmerseMe licences for their French students in 2022 (to be drawn between all participating schools).
  • Year 12 Concours Oral National winner will win a selection of French books (donated by the New Caledonian Government). Plus, a French poetry workshop «Contes» in collaboration with a New Caledonia based author.
Year 13 Concours Oral National winner will win a term of French classes, including tuition, material and annual membership, provided by an Alliance Francaise in their region, up to a maximum of NZ$400 (courtesy of the French Embassy in New Zealand).
The National Concours Oral exam will take place on Saturday 25 September in each region and in Nelson will be run by the Alliance Française.

NATIONAL CONCOURS ORAL RULES &REGULATIONS 2021: 
​year_12_co_rules_2021.docx

Le concours de quoi s'agit-il?
The Alliance Française Nelson Tasman participates in the Concours Oral and has a "Top of the South" "Haut du sud" competition in July/August every two years. 
​
The Concours Oral assesses the conversational skills of the high school students. Each student will be interviewed separately, during approximatively 10 – 15 minutes, by 2 “judges” - French speaking or fluent in French, mainly Alliance members – on the topics the student has covered in the last year. It will take the form of a conversation, with the judges making sure the students feel comfortable and prompting them to speak.
​
French teachers will receive an email detailing this information. Please scroll down to "Send us a query" if your school has been missed out or for more detailed information.

Venue: Richmond New Life Church, Wensley Road, Richmond

The results, certificates and prizes will be given on the same day. The Nelson Alliance will provide certificates for all the participants and medals for the 3 first winners of each year. The top Year 12 and Year 13 winners then go on to enter the Concours Oral National exam which will take place on 25 September 2021.
The CO could also provide a good training for the students entering DELF exams and students will be allowed, if they wish, to record their interviews for their interaction portfolio.
In order to prepare the certificates, organise the jury and schedule, we would be grateful if you could send us the entry forms with student names and pay the entry fees ($10.00 per student). Please see below the eligibility clauses before enrolling a student (this applies only for year 12 and year 13).
Payments can be made by online banking or by bank transfer to the account: 02-0704-0380910-000 BNZ Alliance Française de Nelson / Reference: Concours Oral 2021.
