Colac Secondary College (formerly Colac High School and Colac College) is seeking a French teacher for Years 7 & 8 for 2009, due to the merger this year of the two schools and subsequent increase in the number of students at these levels. Currently French is the only language offered, from Year 7 to Year 12. This is an ideal position for a new and enthusiastic teacher who wants to get the students hooked on LOTE. Colac is located between Warrnambool and Geelong, only 45 mins from the ocean and we are a very warm and welcoming staff and department. We have been to New Caledonia and France and hope to keep this going!
Please contact :
Jackie Dullard
Assistant Principal Ph. 52312688

 

Kyabram Secondary College is heading towards learning studios and project learning. It is intended that LOTE will be incorporated into a project based curriculum, but the delivery of LOTE in a learning studio environment with approx 125 students, and only 2 withdrawal rooms of 6 and 12 students raises some serious questions.

Jan Auld would like to know if anyone is currently teaching LOTE in a secondary school in a studio setting, for the purposes of exchanging ideas.
Please contact Jan Auld
 

 
Native and experienced teacher of French is seeking part-time position close by or within the Mornington Peninsula. Preferably Infants and Primary classes, or Year 7 to 10. Also interested in conversation classes, adults tuition and French as extra-curriculum activity.
