Summer Memories & Autumn Milestones: What’s Next at PDS Formation?

What a summer it’s been here in Morzine!

We’ve loved seeing so many of you at our events and activities over the past few months. A huge merci to everyone who joined us, supported our community, and took the time to practise their French.
Before we look ahead to the new season, let’s take a moment to look back at some of this summer’s highlights!

Looking Back:

Here is how our students stayed engaged and practised their French this summer:

• French Film Club: Our monthly club at the school, led by Lucile, proved to be a wonderful way to spend an evening immersed in the language. From discovering great French cinema to picking up new vocabulary and sharing thoughts during lively group discussions, it was relaxed, social, and très français!
• French & Hike: We took learning outdoors! Led by an expert native French-speaking guide, our hike sessions took us onto Morzine’s beautiful mountain trails. It offered a fun, stress-free setting to build speaking confidence while exploring the local landscape.
• French Films at Cinéma Rex: In collaboration with Cinéma Rex, we brought a curated selection of French films with English subtitles to the big screen—handpicked by our teaching team to offer a taste of French culture and language.
• French Conversation Evenings: We met regularly at La Cendrée for friendly, informal conversation evenings over a drink. These gatherings were a fantastic way for learners to connect, practice spontaneous speaking, and
  build community.

Keep an eye on our social media pages for updates on these social sessions continuing throughout the interseason!
