Even though everyone staying at home, it doesn't mean we can't enjoy good crêpes. So tomorrow, head to your kitchen, gather some ingredients and make some delicious crêpes! Here's the original recipe from Vito :

100 g farine/flour
1 œuf/egg
15 mls (1 Tbsp) huile ou beurre / vegetable oil or butter
200 mls lait/milk
¼ tsp sel/salt
½ tsp sucre/sugar

In a blender, whizz all together for 30 seconds.
Rest for 30 minutes before using.

Makes about 5 crepes, so multiply as needed.

Bonjour a tous,

We know some of you are bored at home or perhaps you need a break from your families every so often, so we are now offering AF classes in 4-week block classes for the duration of Alert Level 4.

You can enrol for Kids Classes here and Adult classes here.

All classes will be taught via Zoom, so you don't need to go anywhere. All you need is an internet connection!

As you all know, non-essential businesses are getting shut down during the quarantine.

We're sad to announce that as a result, Alliance Française will be closed until further notice.

However, we will try to share with everyone some ressources so you can spend your time at home learning more about French language and culture, and have a few moments away from the current situation.

Stay tuned as we're working to get this initiative ready.

Stay safe and STAY HOME, this is the best you can do to protect your and others life, and to reduce the time needed to a regular situation.

There will be no Crêpes evening tomorrow, instead it will be the opening night gala of the amazing French Film Festival at Reading Cinema!
Come hungry for the delicious nibble and great wine by Southern Clams.

Reading Cinema, Thu 12 Mar, Gala from 6.30pm, film starts at 8.00pm. Tickets $35 general public, $25 AF members.

Tickets can be purchased directly from the Reading Cinemas Dunedin website: readingcinemas.co.nz/locations/theatre/dunedin
