Today we went to explore our own town, St. Saturnin Les Apt. It is a quaint village of about 1,500 people. I have honestly never been in such a friendly place, the local people are more than willing to talk with us and exchange. There is a castle at the top of the village from the eleventh century, and we were thrilled to explore. There, at the top of the mountain we had a creative writing exercise.
The students have also been taking turns going to buy bread in pairs in the morning, an excellent way for them to practice their French Language.
We have officially started our Language Courses. Based primarily in conversation, I have already seen many of the students improve greatly. Students feel comfortable ordering in cafes and asking for directions. We're immersing!
