French Club

Moderator: Mrs. Veronique Orlet

The Althoff Catholic French Club is only in its second year of existence, but the members are taking great strides to learn more about the culture of France. Recently, the Club traveled to nearby Forest Park to play "petanque", a game similar to bocce. Also many may have noticed the recent National French Week events around the school. These brilliant ideas included a French style bake sale, croissants for the teachers, and a French inspired Theme Thursday. On January 25, 2008 the French Club visited the St. Louis Art Museum and had a guided tour with our very own Art Teacher, Mr. Woesthaus, and then off to the Melting Pot for a cheese & chocolate fondue.
It's safe to say these lovers of all things Parisian have a lot in store for the future.

Vive le club francais!
